“…Ukil et al in [22] summarize both points of view as: trust collects, encodes, analyzes, and presents evidence that is related to competence, honesty, security or dependability with the purpose that all activity in a network can be carried as securely as possible. Samian et al [23] and Gai et al [24] argue that before trust the most common mechanism to secure routing protocols was to use cryptographic approaches. However because of the ever-increasing number and sophistication of attacks, cryptographic approaches can no longer be considered to be the sole solution to protect wireless networks.…”

Trust is important in Ad-hoc networks because collaboration and cooperation among nodes are critical towards achieving the system's goals, such as routing reliability. In this paper, we seek to provide an understanding of the process of reputation-based trust approaches and related issues as they apply to routing in ad-hoc networks. We discuss the concept and properties of trust. We survey the following issues: the way wireless ad-hoc nodes first assume trust; the evidences that are collected to calculate trust; the calculations that are performed over the evidences; the way the decision is made to determine a trusted node; and how trust is updated to maintain a trusted environment. We provide a comparison of three well-established approaches and discuss some potential attacks against reputation-based trust.

“…Thus, there are significant costs to apply trust evaluations and it is important to find the right balance. Samian et al [18] elaborate how to represent a node's trust properties in the trust evaluation process and what criteria can work as reliable features or evidences to determine the node's trust.…”

While the notion of reputation is proposed to enhance an entity's trustworthiness and improve the security of a network, the problems of trust and reputation themselves, such as fair evaluation, peer assistance, efficient computation, become an important challenge in such systems. This paper addresses the issues of adaptive trust calculation and efficient reputation evaluation in wireless and mobile networks via a distributed approach. We first present the trust relationship between two mutual trustworthy nodes and then an adaptive computational trust prototype is formulated to effectively prevent malicious nodes from entering the trusted community. Through the analysis of our model's security properties, our system is proved to show how it is able to offer security protections to a dynamic but agile environment and at the same time prevent improper behavior within a community.
