Description
This course on Social Media Threats and Counter Measures is based upon the facts that we experience in our life since the inception of the social media. The key purpose of this course is to educate the masses about dark side of the social media along with counter measures.Social media are Internet based communication and mutual interaction technologies. These are computer networks created for exchanging multimedia rich contents between users specially pictures and video clips. Social media (SM) sites are amongst the most widely used technologies on the Internet e.g Facebook, Google+, Linkedln, Twitter etc. These sites have hundreds of millions of daily users and the number is ever increasing with the advent of smart phones and 3G I 4G even 5G networks. People enjoy using Online Social Networks (OSN) to interact with families, friends and other people through sharing of experiences, pictures, videos, and other types of information. On the other hand social media also has a dark side which is rip with hackers, fraudsters, online predators and intelligence agencies; all capable of using OSN as a platform for targeting their next victim.Unfortunately, most users are unaware of the security risks associated with social media platforms that mainly include breach of privacy, identity theft, malware, fake profiles, blackmailing and sexual harassment.According to recent studies, many social media users expose intimate and sensitive personal details about themselves, their friends, families, personal relationships and organisations, either by posting photos or by directly providing information such as home/ office addresses/ phone numbers, current activities and location. Moreover, Facebook users tend to accept friendship requests from unknown people, who are sometimes friend of their friends. By accepting these friend requests, users unknowingly disclose their private information to total strangers. This information could be used maliciously, harming users both in the virtual and in the real world. These risks increase manifold when the users are children or teenagers who are more exposed and vulnerable than the adults. Horrifically, in some cases cyberbullying through social media can lead to catastrophic results like committing suicide by the affected children.In this era of social media growth, we must keep some preventive measures while using social media.
