Abstract

This paper describes a formal framework for implementing trust policies in security systems. It consists of a model for representing opinions about trust and a set of operations to manipulate these opinions and to make decisions.

This research was supported by Norwegian Research Council Grant No.116417/410.

This research was carried out while the author was visiting the ISRC at QUT.
