Analyzing trust and security in computing and communications systems

Whether trust should be considered completely within the perimeter of security in computing and communications systems is a debatable issue. In normal human life, we see these two terms go hand in hand to define the relationships we might have with fellow human beings. Trust among people sets the le...

In normal human life, we see these two terms go hand in hand to define the relationships we might have with fellow human beings.
