A privacy-enabled solution for sharing social data in ad-hoc mobile networks

Abstract

There is an enormous growth of the use of mobile devices and the social Web. Thus the users want to exchange their social data easily by using their phones and PDAs. We show that existing solutions put the users at security and privacy risks. Then, we describe our protocol for exchanging users' social data. We demonstrate that enables better security and privacy for exchanging social data. In addition we show that our solution causes lower data overhead for the participants.
