Abstract

The threats to Internet have been also posed to the social networking sites. In social networks people tend to reduce the original alert and this makes it easier for malware to spread. In this paper we study the threats to social networks in recent years and analyze the targets what the attackers want and the methods how attackers perform the attacks. We separate social networks into two parts: user and social networking site. Then we discuss in details the countermeasures against the threats to social networks. In the end we propose a security framework of social networks.
