Privacy Preserving Collaborative Social Network

Abstract

There are many kinds of social networks in existence. To our best knowledge, there is no effort on how to construct a social network jointly from different parties. Thus, there is a need for a proper protocol to both make a collaborative social network feasible between different parties and ensure privacy. We propose a series of protocols to create and interact with a privacy preserving collaborative social networks and evaluate their potential. The protocols are implemented, tested and evaluated.
