    Abstract – Large-scale peer-to-peer systems face
    security threats from faulty or hostile remote
    computing elements. To resist these threats, many
    such systems employ redundancy. However, if a
    single faulty entity can present multiple identities,
    it can control a substantial fraction of the system,
    thereby undermining this redundancy. One
    approach to preventing these “Sybil attacks” is to
    have a trusted agency certify identities. This
    paper shows that, without a logically centralized
    authority, Sybil attacks are always possible except
    under extreme and unrealistic assumptions of
    resource parity and coordination among entities.
