Abstract

The information security problems for open multiagent systems using access control schemes based on RSA algorithm are analyzed. It is shown that when using such schemes, a significant part of the agents’ lifetime is spent on authentication processes. In order to increase the efficiency of multiagent systems by reducing the number of agent authentication processes, a method of access differentiation based on Goppa codes is justified and proposed. For the proposed methodology, an assessment of the security level of agents' information is given.
