Abstract

Network trust evaluation is an important mechanism in improving network security. Network trust is determined by the node trust and the topology of the network. To improve the evaluation accuracy and efficiency, we propose a node centrality-based network trust evaluation method. Firstly, the node trust is calculated by employing the node behavior analysis. Secondly, node centrality in the network is calculated based on coefficient variation. Finally, the network trust is calculated based on the above-mentioned steps. Experiment results show that our proposed method can improve the evaluation accuracy.
