Privacy Requirements: A Framework for Reviewing Privacy Design

 - By Marin Beijerbacht -

We announce the publication of the article 'SNS Privacy Requirements: A Framework for Reviewing Privacy Design on SNS' written by Marin Beijerbacht.

This research provides a framework for reviewing and improving the privacy design of SNS. It does this by taking into account both research into the subject of privacy and security and requirements users have regarding privacy design. The framework can be used to grade different aspects of the privacy design of a SNS platform and in doing so can uncover weak points. Next to quantifying the quality of the privacy design it can help guide the development process of a platform or help improve it. Additionally if repeated more often it can capture the progress of the privacy design and the results can also be shared with the public to increase transparency to users.
