  Abstract

The P2P service is a technology that can share their information with each other who is able to be connected with a relating program without passing by a server. Since all personal computers that linked to the Internet under the P2P service can operate as a server or a client, they can provide and share both their information and services through the direct connection. Currently, the P2P service is giving an equal privilege to all users for sharing their resources. Under this situation, a lot of vulnerability against the various attacks through the Internet is possible, more sophisticated security services are necessary. In this paper, we propose an access control scheme using SPKI (Simple Public Key Infrastructure). The scheme designates an access control by providing the certificate to users who request a connection for resource sharing and limits the resource usage of information provider according to the access right that is given to their own rights.
