A data driven anonymization system for information rich online social network graphs

作者:

Highlights:

• Considers a new approach for the anonymization of complex social graph data.

• Preserves local social neighborhood of nodes during anonymization.

• Has an integrated synthetic generator for online social network graph data.

• Strong privacy level for complex graph data using k-anonymity and t-closeness.

• Results show a lower anonymization cost than other methods.
