Trust evaluation algorithm of IoT edge server based on cooperation reputation and device feedback by Lin ZHANG, Xinyan WEI, Xiping LIU, Haiping HUANG, Ruchuan WANG

“…Aiming at the security problem of edge server, a trust evaluation algorithm was proposed, which integrated server cooperation reputation and device user feedback to improve the security of edge computing context.In the process of interaction, a fusion algorithm based on objective information entropy theory was used to aggregate the cooperation reputation between servers, and a partial homomorphic encryption algorithm was used to prevent the leakage of user data in the process of interaction.After the interaction, the highly trusted device node was selected to calculate the feedback trust, which overcame the malicious feedback of the traditional mechanism.When calculating the global trust, the expected score of the server and the adaptive weight calculation method were considered, which overcame the limitations of the traditional trust scheme.The experimental results show that the proposed trust calculation scheme has low time complexity and spatial complexity, and can effectively resist the attack of malicious nodes.…”
