Decentralized File Sharing

The popularity of peer-to-peer architecture has expanded during some recent years. This is due to the fact in comparison to conventional systems, Peer-to-peer systems offer better performance, scalability, availability, security, and anonymity. Most applications and services rely on central authorities for transfer of files. This introduces a single point of failure to the system. The relevant authority should be depended on to have facts saved via way of means of the utility to be had at any given time. More importantly, the privacy of the consumer relies upon the provider company's functionality to hold the facts safe. A decentralized system could be the technique to remove the dependency on a central authority. Moreover, because of the speedy boom of cellular tool utilization, the provision of decentralization should now no longer be confined best to desktop computers. This survey research examines the architecture of such systems using various peer-to-peer architectures. In this work, we aim at studying a decentralized file-sharing system to make it more secure than in previous works. This can be achieved by implementing a P2P protocol with authentication. We validate the outcomes via way of means of deploying and measuring the accuracy and security of file transfer in multiple devices.
