Modern Privacy-Preserving and Security Schemes in Social Networks: A Review
Abstract
Online Social Network (OSN) is a popular application to exchange messages over the internet. However, millions of users are still under threat because of protection drawbacks. Many papers have proposed security methods, including firewalls, protocols, cryptography, statistical analysis, even learning algorithms. This paper provides an overview of privacy and security issues and describes multiple OSN protection techniques. We present various security schemes in OSNs and outline existing solutions to mitigate those attacks. This paper also discusses future research directions regarding OSN security problems and techniques.
