Description
Summary:Trust in semantic Web is established by either credentials or reputation. Credential-based trust protocols assume the possession of credentials and transfer them between parties in order to establish trust. Since credentials can be private data, the act of providing private credentials implies poor privacy management even if transferred through secure (encrypted) channels.
