【 摘 要 】

Privacy-related issues are becoming a serious concern among users of social networks. There are at least three reasons that justify this growing concern: social networking privacy policies are hardly trivial; they live in a constant state of ux; and they are only informally and partially described by the social networking sites. To improve this current state of affairs, we propose SecureUML as a formal language to model social networking privacy, and we set ourselves the goal of modeling, as a case study, Facebook privacy policy. Based on our formal model, we envision a new generation of tools that will provide Facebook users with more information about the privacy of their posts and about the associated privacy-related risks.
