Abstract :
Naturally, friendships are formed between
persons with common interests. Since the Internet
became ubiquitous and the proliferation of social media
platforms, friendship has progressed from being
entirely physical to virtual. The bane of social media
platforms has been the issue of privacy and security of
users’ information. Most of the existing schemes where
users either broadcast their information or send
attributes to a central server so as to find the best match
pair has got some privacy issues. In these platforms,
users’ sensitive personal information can easily be
compromised. Also, attacks from semi-honest or
malicious adversaries are difficult to prevent. In order
to prevent malicious attacks, this paper proposes
protocols based on privacy-preserving scalar product
computation and authenticated Diffie-Hellman protocol.
The use of this platform can help users find a perfect
match without compromising their information.
