CALCULATION AND REASSESSMENT OF THE TRUST LEVEL GIVEN TO MEMBERS OF VIRTUAL ORGANIZATIONS

Abstract

In this paper we set out to introduce new elements when calculating the level of trust given to a new member of a virtual organization. Compared to previous works, we have introduced new elements: the initial trust whose value results from sociological and psychological considerations and a reassessment of the trust by introducing feedback elements in the calculation formulas. The trust values thus calculated will be the elements on which the trust-based security policies of the organization will be built.
