Abstract

The term File Sharing is the sharing of computer data or space on a network. File-sharing allows multiple users to access the same file, giving the user the ability to read, modify, copy and/or print it. File sharing is a common practice since the introduction of computer networks. P2P applications or Peer-to-peer applications, such as those used to share multimedia files, are some of the most common forms of file-sharing technology. However, Peer-to-peer applications are vulnerable to security risks that may put your information or your computer in jeopardy. In this paper, we discuss the issues and solutions in P2P Sharing. A method in file sharing which include the splitting of the file into chunks before the sending process is suggested. This method's process and applicability is also discussed.
