Exploiting Social Trust for Secure and Robust Mobile Networks - Ref: AGUF2018

Future mobile systems will not only offer data throughput hundreds of times higher than 4G/5G systems can provide, but will also demand higher data security. These requirements point to the need for radical new techniques that will better integrate the needs of the end-user into the system design. In this PhD research, we will be investigating emerging research topic to exploit users’ social trust information in forming secure and robust mobile networks.
