Abstract
In the past ten years, grid computing has been heavily researched and developed. At the present, grid technology has matured enough to enable the realization of workable and commercial infrastructures, platforms and tools, ready to be used in production environments ranging from scientific to commercial application domains. As grid resources are used outside of organizational boundaries, it becomes increasingly difficult to guarantee that a resource being used is not malicious in some way. However, the critical grid application domains require many protections against malicious entities or massive attacks. It is then necessary to detect and tolerate malicious behavior of grid resources (or resources provider) in order to enhance the efficiency of grid security architecture. In this paper, we will propose and discuss an attack-tolerance mechanism based on sabotage tolerance technique. The grid broker service will build the reputation of all resources provider, by observing their trustworthiness from their previous results. The reputation value can be used in the validation process of job result by using majority voting technique.
