“…However, the altered content may be malicious, fake, or corrupt. This affects the network’s quality of service (especially in file, voice, and video-based P2P streaming systems [ 72 , 73 , 75 , 79 , 80 ]), overall system energy consumption [ 74 ], content availability [ 78 ], and data integrity [ 72 ]. Pollution is an easy and fast way to disseminate worms or viruses from one to many peers in the network.…”

“…Therefore, pollution can have an exponential impact on the security of the entire network [ 72 ]. The pollution attack was first discovered in 2005, where a crawler was used to retrieve super peers in the KaZaA P2P network [ 73 ]. Analysis of the contents collected by the crawler revealed that over 50% of welcome copies (ie, introductory files for a collection of files) for musical files in the KaZaA network were polluted [ 73 ].…”

Background Patient-centered health care information systems (PHSs) enable patients to take control and become knowledgeable about their own health, preferably in a secure environment. Current and emerging PHSs use either a centralized database, peer-to-peer (P2P) technology, or distributed ledger technology for PHS deployment. The evolving COVID-19 decentralized Bluetooth-based tracing systems are examples of disease-centric P2P PHSs. Although using P2P technology for the provision of PHSs can be flexible, scalable, resilient to a single point of failure, and inexpensive for patients, the use of health information on P2P networks poses major security issues as users must manage information security largely by themselves. Objective This study aims to identify the inherent security issues for PHS deployment in P2P networks and how they can be overcome. In addition, this study reviews different P2P architectures and proposes a suitable architecture for P2P PHS deployment. Methods A systematic literature review was conducted following PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses) reporting guidelines. Thematic analysis was used for data analysis. We searched the following databases: IEEE Digital Library, PubMed, Science Direct, ACM Digital Library, Scopus, and Semantic Scholar. The search was conducted on articles published between 2008 and 2020. The Common Vulnerability Scoring System was used as a guide for rating security issues. Results Our findings are consolidated into 8 key security issues associated with PHS implementation and deployment on P2P networks and 7 factors promoting them. Moreover, we propose a suitable architecture for P2P PHSs and guidelines for the provision of PHSs while maintaining information security. Conclusions Despite the clear advantages of P2P PHSs, the absence of centralized controls and inconsistent views of the network on some P2P systems have profound adverse impacts in terms of security. The security issues identified in this study need to be addressed to increase patients’ intention to use PHSs on P2P networks by making them safe to use.

While P2P applications enrich the network application, they consume huge network bandwidth and have a great impact on ISP. As for current traffic optimization problem, maybe the most effective analysis tool is the game theory. This paper proposes an ISP-involved P2P network traffic management framework, builds a game model and its equilibrium solution, then from the perspective of evolution, performs convergence analysis on the equilibrium solution, based on this, generates a traffic management optimization algorithm, and discusses the fairness of the algorithm. Finally, the simulation experiments show that, the model can reach the purpose of optimizing traffic management.
