Abstract: According to an aspect of the present disclosure there is provided a method for mapping and handling interactions between a plurality of entities in a network. The method comprises calculating an initial trust value between pairs of entities based on all previous interactions between those entities, the trust value indicating the degree of trust associated with the interaction. The method also comprises determining, for each entity in the network in turn, one or more pair-wise relationships between a selected entity and any of the other entities in the network with which the selected entity has interacted; and generating a graphical representation of all of the entities in the network based on the relationships determined for each pair of entities, and the calculated trust value associated with the interaction between each pair of entities. The method also comprises iteratively propagating, using a graphical mapping algorithm, the initial trust values to all entities in the graphical representation so as to calculate a current trust value associated with each entity; and analysing the calculated current trust values for each entity to determine an appropriate action to be taken in dependence on the results of the analysis.
