Abstract

This study entails pairing peers that indicated interest to communicate in the peer-to-peer system. Subssequently, a peer restricter policy was introduced to ensure systematic and automatic generation of a Communication Identity Code (CIC) for every successfully registered peer and any deviation to manipulate the system display error. This CIC ensure first and only acceptable connection request to a distinct authorized registered peer in the network. The communication identity code guarantees authentication of communicating peers at both end thus displaying a connection established with peer, assuring non-repudiation by the paired peers. The last phase requires activation ,incorporation of diverse agent functionalities that facilitates message exchange of peers and it is imperative to secure every communication from an un-intended recipient peer in this peer-to-peer system using RSA cryptosystem as another security layer.SHA3-1024 was used in extending RSA as it provided added capability in securing the system. The displayed encrypted and decrypted feedback messages assured security, fulfils proactive and goal directed features of agent in this peer-to-peer system.
