Abstract

In this paper, we present a comprehensive trust model using emails. A bootstrapping trust model - Email Trust (EMT) - in pervasive communication environments. EMT focuses on email-based social network trust, which provides a level of belief on the data transmitted by an entity. To achieve the email-based social network trust, we require each user to perform a trust checking procedure and process a received trust checking request from their highly trusted email contacts or through a trusted checking proxy server that is maintained by a trusted third party. We present the basic trust models based on emails. This paper is a pioneer work to demonstrate the basic trust model that can be established by using email-based social network.
