Social Networks (SN) Sites are becoming very popular and the number of users is increasing rapidly. A typical MSN provides each user with a virtual space containing profile information, a list of the user's friends, plus web pages, such as wall in Face book, where users and friends can post content and send messages. A user profile usually includes information with respect to the user's birthday, gender, interests, education and employment history, and contact information. Although MSNs currently provide simple access control mechanisms allowing users to govern access to information contained in users own spaces, they unfortunately, have no control over data residing outside their spaces. For example, Face allows users to state who is allowed to insert messages in their walls.
