“…If the naming of the actors is left out, it is possible to reduce the number of possible combinations of relationships involving three actors from 64 specific ordered triples to 16 isomorphic types of triads of which only four are transitive. The four transitive triads illustrated in Figure 3 are all closed, but the ties linking the actors are not all bi-directional (Alhazmi et al , 2015; Wasserman and Faust, 1994 chapter 6).…”

Purpose The paper explores the links between network structures and internationalization, conceptualized as a process of value innovation. The exploration sets off from the concept of an entry node, i.e. whether network entrance is facilitated by a direct dyadic or an indirect triadic relationship. Design/methodology/approach The paper is mainly conceptual, but also presents an empirical cross-border actor constellation which highlights the implications of the study. Findings Bi-directionality implies that value innovation is contingent on the fit between the actors involved in the entry node, not on the fulfilment of the needs of a focal actor. Further, the attractiveness of an entry node depends on network structures, the network positions of the actors in the entry node, the desired outcomes of entry (immersion or reach), and the actual behavior of the actors. The dynamics of transitivity can influence triadic entry nodes. However, transitivity operates differently in business networks than in social networks constituted by inter-personal ties. Therefore, closure of open triadic entry nodes is neither an automatic outcome of strong ties, nor a normatively better outcome. Research limitations/implications The theorizing offered by this paper must be further explored in different empirical contexts to assess its practical adequacy. Still, the presented empirical case indicates that the expected attractiveness of entry nodes is closely linked to (in)transitivity. Originality/value The paper supports the relevance of expanding from a dyadic to a network perspective in order to capture the dynamics of value innovation in an international setting.

“…A person can use these social applications at any time to contact with friends and send messages regardless of age, gender, and even socioeconomic status [19][20][21]. These messages should contain sensitive and private information, e.g., location [22], channel state information [23], routing information [24], social relationships [25], browsing data of Internet [26], health data [27], and financial transactions [28]. Obviously, the person should be worried about disclosures of personal information, which may be harmful to him either in virtual or real world [13,29,30].…”

An online social network (OSN) is a platform that makes people communicate with friends, share messages, accelerate business, and enhance teamwork. In the OSN, privacy issues are increasingly concerned, especially in private message leaks in word-of-mouth. A user’s privacy may be leaked out by acquaintances without user’s consent. In this paper, an integrated system is designed to prevent this illegal privacy leak. In particular, we only use the method of space vector model to determine whether the user’s private message is really leaked. Canary traps techniques are used to detect leakers. Then, we define a trust degree mechanism to evaluate trustworthiness of a communicator dynamically. Finally, we set up a new message publishing system to determine who can obtain the message of publisher. Secrecy performance analysis is provided to verify the effectiveness of the proposed message publishing system. Accordingly, a user in social networks can check whether other users are trustworthy before sending their private messages.
