Abstract
This chapter discusses the lessons learned from computer security in the past decades and how it applies to human computation systems for solving unsolved problems. The distributed nature and inherent trust found in collaboration systems will raise particular challenges to the unique assets of problem solving systems. The chapter discusses the problem solving systems must address.
