Abstract

Mobile Agent Systems model has attracted attention of various researchers and scholars all over the world due to a wide array of features it offers. The capability of mobile agent to hop independently from one network to another, carrying out various computational processes on remote network, enables them to operate in fixed and mobile networks more efficiently and robustly than typical client-server systems. However little attention is paid to the security management of the mobile agents due to which it is still not widely used in the industry domain. . In this chapter, the authors examine the various security issues in Mobile Agent systems and approaches used to overcome them.
