Today I read a paper titled “Dealing With Curious Players in Secure Networks”
The abstract is:
In secure communications networks there are a great number of user behavioural problems, which need to be dealt with.
Curious players pose a very real and serious threat to the integrity of such a network.
By traversing a network a Curious player could uncover secret information, which that user has no need to know, by simply posing as a loyalty check.
Loyalty checks are done simply to gauge the integrity of the network with respect to players who act in a malicious manner.
We wish to propose a method, which can deal with Curious players trying to obtain “Need to Know” information using a combined Fault-tolerant, Cryptographic and Game Theoretic Approach.
