Protecting User Data in Profile Matching in Social Networks

Photo sharing is an attractive feature which popularizes Online Social Networks (OSNs). Unfortunately, it may leak user’s privacy if they are allowed to post, comment, and tag a photo freely. In this paper we try to implement the security of our current OSN with three main scenarios like: An image which is uploaded in public profile will be accessed only by the direct friends or family members of that posted user, which is not allowed or accessed by friends of friends or family of family members. In the second scenario we try to give security for the private profile sharing by restricting the users not to access private content by all members who are mutually related. In the third scenario we try to give security for the comments posted for the images by several individuals. Now a day’s all the comments can be viewed by each and every one who is connected with that profile, but in our proposed application we try to provide security by restricting un known persons not to access or read others comments posted on user image. We show that our system is superior to other possible approaches in terms of recognition ratio and efficiency. Our mechanism is implemented as a proof to enable more security for the social network sites to share the data among several users.
