Abstract : The rapid development of the online social media and its application has enabled people to share interests and activities, through the Internet using online social platforms. The enormous sharing of information in the media has enabled hackers to steal personal information about the user. This calls for improved schemes capable of mitigating Internet fraud, privacy leak, dissemination of rumors, etc. The unawareness that exists in the peers related to the risk associated with uploading sensitive information paves way for cyber conspirators to prey on personal information. Failure to apply security policies will easily compromise the social stature of the individual. The paper proposes a security framework SRR (Secure Request, Response) to classify the trust/distrust relationship in the online social network.
