Description
Summary:Nowadays the rapid development of network technology makes mobile agents used widely in many fields. However, mobile agentspsila popularity has been limited due to some security problems. According to different characteristics of distributed network structures, security requirements of mobile agent systems are different. Aimed at the security requirements of multi-grade mobile agent systems, a security mechanism was proposed. In this mechanism, the technology of authentication and cryptography was used to protect mobile agents and agent platforms from malicious hosts or other agents. The proposed mechanism has been implemented by using python language.
