A distributed file integrity checking system is described. The described peer integrity checking system (PICS) may negate an attack by storing a properties database amongst nodes of a peer-to-peer network of hosts, some or all of which co-operate to protect and watch over each other.

Peer integrity checking system

A method for conducting encrypted communication in a network and a network having a plurality of nodes organized into a plurality of groups which initiates encrypted communication between a first one of the plurality of nodes of a first one of the plurality of groups and a second one of the plurality of nodes of the first one of the plurality of groups different from the first one of the plurality of groups using a group key and initiates encrypted communication between a third one of the plurality of nodes of the first one of the plurality of groups and a fourth one of the plurality of nodes of a second one of the plurality groups different from the first one of the plurality of groups using a session key.

Network having multicast security and method therefore

The present application relates to an implementation of a reliable transport protocol that provides receiver-based congestion control within a computing system. An exemplary system includes a first network device and a second network device within a network. During a handshake procedure, a transmission rate at which data can be sent as well as an acceptable corruptive loss rate for a data path between the first network device and the second network device in the network is determined. The second network device then receives data sent from the first network device at the transmission rate. When the acceptable corruptive loss rate for received data has been exceeded, the second network device determines an amount by which to reduce the transmission rate, and then sends a notification to the first network device indicating the amount by which to reduce the transmission rate for subsequently transmitted data.
