A vulnerability evaluation framework for online social network profiles: axioms and propositions

Abstract: Abstract:Online social network (OSN) usage has led to personal details being presented on online profiles readily. This can cause profile owners to be vulnerable to social engineering attacks. Our approach to quantifying vulnerability consists of a model with three components: individual, relative and absolute vulnerabilities.The individual vulnerability is calculated by allocating weights to profile attribute values disclosed which may contribute towards the personal vulnerability of the profile owner.

“…We will study this possibility and see its advantages compared to the failure of the server but also its disadvantages concerning the updating of the adjacency matrix after each event of addition / suppression of a node / link in the network thus the overload of the DISSEMINATION of this update. For more details of this type of OSN, they are treated by Alim et al (2011Alim et al ( , 2012.…”
