Embodiments of the present invention provide methods, systems, and software for implementing trust policies. Such policies may be implemented in a variety of ways, including at one or more border devices, client computers, etc. m accordance with various embodiments, a communication between a client computer (and/or application) and an online entity may be monitored and/or otherwise detected. The online entity may be identified, and/or one or more trust scores associated with the online entity may be obtained. Based on the trust scores, as well, perhaps as the nature of the communication, an action (such as allowing the communication, blocking the communication, quarantining the communication, warning a user, administrator, etc.) may be taken. In some cases, a trust policy may be consulted to determine what action should be taken with respect to a given communication.
