 Abstract

Compromised accounts in Online Social Networks (OSNs) are

more favorable than Sybil accounts to spammers and other
malicious OSN attackers. Malicious parties exploit the well-
established connections and trust relationships between the
legitimate account owners and their friends, and efficiently
distribute spam ads, phishing links, or malware, while avoiding
being blocked by the service providers. Offline analyses of tweets
and Facebook posts [10], [12] reveal that most spam are
distributed via compromised accounts, instead of dedicated spam
accounts.
 Existing System
Account compromization is a serious threat to users of
online social networks (OSNs). While relentless spammers exploit
the established trust relationships between account owners and
their friends to efficiently spread malicious spam, timely detection
of compromised accounts is quite challenging due to the well
established trust relationship between the service providers,
account owners, and their friends. In this paper, we study the
social behaviors of OSN users, i.e., their usage of OSN services,
and the application of which in detecting the compromised
accounts.

Advantages:
Privacy is less.
 Proposed System
We propose a set of social behavioral features that can effectively
characterize the user social activities on OSNs. We validate the efficacy of
these behavioral features by collecting and analyzing real user click
streams to an OSN website. Based on our measurement study, we devise
individual user’s social behavioral profile by combining its respective
behavioral feature metrics. A social behavioral profile accurately reflects a
user’s OSN activity patterns. While an authentic owner conforms to its
account’s social behavioral profile involuntarily, it is hard and costly for
impostors to feign. We evaluate the capability of the social behavioral
profiles in distinguishing different OSN users, and our experimental results
show the social behavioral profiles can accurately differentiate individual
OSN users and detect compromised accounts.

Advantages
Privacy is more.
