Abstract
Mobile Software Agent a technology that satisfies the requirements of intelligence in distributed systems; and has become increasingly used in serval domains but it is difficult to grantee its security because of its strong mobility over the network. And for today’s Internet, the Secure Socket Layer (SSL) and Transport Layer Security (TLS) are the most widely deployed security protocols that used to exchange data over the Internet securely based on encrypted communication. The present paper seeks a solution to meet the security requirements of communication in Multi-Agent System (MAS) based on the JADE framework and by using cryptographical techniques to ensure a secure encrypted communication using SSL/TLS protocol (Paulson LC, Inductive Analysis of the Internet Protocol TLS, [1, 2]).
