Abstract

Social networking apps offer a straightforward way for people to have a simple social presence through web. They provide a virtual environment for people to share each and every activity, their interests, and their circle of acquaintance with their family, friends, or even the unknown. With so much sharing, hackers, attackers, kidnappers and thieves have found very easy ways to steal personal information through these networking apps. In this paper, we will discuss a main and security breach and its respective prevention techniques. In this paper we propose an application for secure exchange of photos and profile safety between users. This architecture improves the customization of profiles.
