Trust Integration for Security Optimisation in P2P-Based M2M Applications

This publication presents a novel concept for securing P2P-based M2M applications using the integration of a trust management system. In addition, this publication presents different security problems inside the P2P-based M2M application (P2P4M2M) framework and evaluates P2P protocols based on security. Furthermore, this paper emphasises the importance of trust for ensuring security. This is done through a novel concept which uses special trust metric parameters for the P2P4M2M framework.
