Computer scientists, electrical engineers, communications specialists, and other researchers review the current engineering, development, and research applied to online social networks. In particular, they consider ways to address security threats, and introduce proper countermeasures to attacks at every level during the design and development of network applications. Their topics include access control models, social interactions and automated detection tools in cyberbullying, distributed social platforms for confidentiality and resilience, privacy issues in social networks, a graph-based approach to model privacy and security issues, and using formal methods to enforce privacy-aware social networking.
