Abstract
The problem of sharing resources in a secure manner in a social network has been addressed by various publications. Some of these schemes depend on a centralized server as a trusted third party, all of them require both the users (the user providing access and the user accessing the resource) to be online in order for the resource to be shared. This requirement is a drawback in real world as it is not feasible for all the users to come online each time their resource is accessed. We have designed and implemented a social network access control mechanism where the different users can have asynchronous access to their friends‟ information (based on access rule satisfaction) and hide information from the server. The access control model in our system allows users to specify access policies based on distance in the social network. This access control model has been enforced via a key management system.
