  abstract =	 {Each time we carry out vital communication in any
                  distributed computer system such as the Internet, we
                  face an inherent risk. This risk arises because we
                  can never be completely certain about the
                  trustworthiness of entities that mediate our on-line
                  interactions. To minimise this risk, users must be
                  given the chance to assess trust on the network, and
                  be given an opportunity to pick an option with the
                  least level of perceived risk. In this paper, we
                  explain why traditional network security mechanisms
                  are incomplete in their function to manage trust,
                  and provide a general model based on
                  recommendations.},
