Abstract

With rapidly evolving technology, social networks are the most popular medium for communicating information from person to person on the Internet. Nowadays, people of all ages spend most of their time on social networking. As a result, vast amounts of information are being generated and exchanged through social networks worldwide. Moreover, the information shared through social networks and media spreads rapidly, nearly instantly, making it appealing to attackers to damage the transmission. Therefore, the privacy and security of social networks must be investigated from multiple perspectives, including security, privacy, and authenticity risks associated with the user's information shared whenever the user publishes personal data such as images, videos, audio, and more. Therefore, security and privacy are the major issues in social networks. To solve these issues, we propose machine learning-enabled distributed framework for attack detection in social networks. Extreme learning machine (ELM) algorithm is used at the edge layer with the classifier and train model for attack detection and communication latency in the networks. Furthermore, distributed blockchain is leveraged at the fog layer for data verification and validation, and then data is stored at the cloud layer. Moreover, we illustrate a methodological flowchart of the proposed framework.
