Abstract Mobile Agent has many benefits over traditional distributed systems such as reducing latency, bandwidth, and costs. Mobile Agent Systems
are not fully utilized due to security problems. This paper focuses on mobile
agent protection against malicious hosts. A new security mechanism called
Checkpoints has been proposed. Checkpoint Mechanism (CPM) aims to
protect Mobile Agent against malicious hosts in case of Capturing and
Integrity attacks. CPM assumes using a free-roaming mobility mechanism by
Mobile agent systems. The main idea behind CPM is to generate multiple
versions of Mobile Agent. The multiple version is used to recover Mobile
Agent from Capturing and… More >
