Abstract
Reputation systems are widely used to provide a trustworthy environment and improve the sustainability of online discussions. They help users understand and evaluate the quality of information by collecting and counting feedback from different users. However, a common issue in most reputation systems is how to maintain users’ reputation and protect their anonymity simultaneously. In this paper, we introduce a new practical anonymous reputation system based on SGX. The establishment of an anonymous reputation system has a positive effect on sustainable trust in reputation-based online applications. Our system achieves the combination of reputation and anonymity by utilizing Intel SGX and the Bloom filter. The Path ORAM algorithm is also implemented to resist side-channel attacks. The experiments demonstrate that our system achieves high performance in terms of computation and storage costs. When compared to two state-of-the-art anonymous reputation systems, our system has better computation performance with at least three orders of magnitude.
