“…The proposed protocol is based on works, inspired from human behaviors and thinking (Bouchemal & Maamri, 2012;Bouchemal & Maamri, 2013). Authors presented a scenario from family real life, where each member (Parents and Childs) was modeled by an ambient agent embedded in an AmI device.…”

Ubiquitous computing and ambient intelligence (or AmI) models raise the need for secured systems, due to increased heterogeneity, intelligence and dynamism. Information in such environments is managed by systems formed mostly of devices with limited capabilities. Indeed, AmI characteristics, difficult to handle by traditional computing concepts, are making the agent paradigm to gain impetus and increasing the interest of researchers and industry in this concept. However, the inherent complexity of information security is bigger in agent-based AmI systems built by gathering distributed information and services that are not under the control of a single entity, and introduce new security and privacy concerns. In fact, securing these systems requires protecting any element from every other. This paper proposes a mechanism for enhancing security and privacy while using agents in AmI environments, based on three main building blocks: verification, judgment and surveillance. Furthermore, the key idea is based on cooperation and collective decision.

“…We proposed in previous works (Bouchemal, 2012) an approach based on guaranty, where an agent is integrated into a group only if an agent from the group knows it. The problem is posed when no agent knows the new one.…”

In a future vision of Ambient Intelligence-or AmI-our surrounding environment will integrate a pervasive and interconnected network of devices equipped with sensors, actuators and ambient agents. However, it is a big security issue when building this kind of complex systems, and it is not enough that ambient agent platform provides a set of standard security mechanisms such as sandboxing, encryption and digital signatures. Furthermore, we must take into account ambient agent limitations and we mustn't endow it with complex cryptography concepts or historic data. This is why our approach, proposed in this paper, is based on cooperation between group members and behavior inspection of new integrated agents, in addition of some cryptography concepts. The proposed protocol is based on cooperation, collective decision, guarantee and attribution of privileges according to the trust degree of agents.
