N2 - Although mobile agent paradigm provides many advantages for distributed computing, several security issues of the mobile agent paradigm remain as the most import difficulty that should be solved to increase its application. One of the most important mobile agent security issues is that mobile agents securely transfer from a host to other hosts. Until now, many mobile agent systems have been developed, but those systems do not support mechanisms to provide for secure transmission of mobile agents or have several problems. This paper proposes an integrity mechanism that mobile agents can migrate to other hosts securely. This mechanism is independent on specific security frameworks, so it can be used easily under various mobile agent environments.
