SNS (Social Network Service) has evolved to life-friendly service with the combination of local services. Unlike exsiting mobile services, life-friendly service is expected to be personalized with gathering of local information, location information and social network service information. In the process of gathering various kinds of information, Big-data technology and Cloud technology is needed. The effective algorithem has researched for this already, however the privacy protection model hasn't researched enough in life-friendly service or big-data using circumstance. In this paper, the privacy issue is dealt with in terms of 'Structure hole', and the privacy issue comes from big-data technology of life-friendly service.

Due to the popularity of location-based services, the amount of generated spatial data in daily life has been dramatically increasing. Therefore, spatial database outsourcing has become popular for data owners to reduce the spatial database management cost. The most important consideration in database outsourcing is meeting the privacy requirements and guarantying the integrity of the query result. However, most of existing database transformation techniques do not support both of the data privacy and integrity of the query result. To solve this problem, we propose a spatial data transformation scheme that utilizes the shearing transformation with rotation shifting. In addition, we described the attack models to measure the data privacy of database transformation schemes. Finally, we demonstrated through the experimental evaluations that our scheme provides high level of data protection against different kinds of attack models, compared to the existing schemes, while guaranteeing the integrity of the query result sets.

Against the global eavesdropping in wireless sensor networks, tremendous amount of dummy packets for faking are likely to be continuously generated in order to keep the location privacy of the communication source and destination. In our approach only certain disk-shaped zones of encompassing sources and destination are allowed to issue dummy packets during the data transfer so that the amount of generated packets is reduced while the location privacy of the source and destination remains secret. To this end we design a routing protocol and propose a detailed formal specification of it, and verify major characteristics.

Regional CRL(certificate revocation list) in vehicular communications is to partition Full CRL into several small CRLs according to geographic location to keep the size of individual CRLs with smaller. However, since a Regional CRL includes vehicle's revoked certificates within its administrative region, it has to know vehicle' location. For this, how to know vehicle' location effectively corresponding to every region represents a major challenge. This paper proposes a Regional CRL scheme which is envisioned to achieve vehicle's location and to make regional CRLs according to vehicles current location efficiently. The scheme is based on the short-lived pseudonyms defined by WAVE standard. It also acquires issued pseudonyms, vehicle's id and region information whenever a vehicle initiates pseudonyms refill after that, utilizes them to create and distribute the Regional CRL. To keep location privacy-preserving for vehicles, the scheme uses the blockchain technology in the network. The analysis results show that it reduces CRL size and database query time for finding revoked certificates sharply in the vehicle's on-board unit.

위치기반 서비스(Location Based Service)는 이동통신망 또는 GPS 등을 기반으로 사람이나 사물의 위치를 정확하게 파악하고 이를 활용하여 다양한 응용이 가능한 서비스를 의미한다. 최근 위치기반 서비스는 이동통신 기지국이나 GPS를 통해 개인이나 차량등의 위치를 파악하여 긴급구조, 교통정보, 재난관리 등을 서비스하는 신산업 분야로서의 중요성이 증대됨에 따라 이에 대한 관심이 급증하고 있다. 그러나 이러한 산업 파급효과와 서비스 유형을 고려할 때, 공간정보의 활용과 위치기반서비스의 구현에서 핵심적인 역할을 하는 것이 위치정보인데 이러한 위치정보는 여타의 정보와 다른 특성을 가지게 된다. 즉, 위치정보는 개인정보보호 및 프라이버시(사생활)보호의 문제와 직결된다는 것이다. 특히 위치정보가 성명, 주민등록번호, 주소, 전화번호 등과 함께 직접적으로 사생활 침해의 문제를 강하게 발생시킬 수 있어 위치정보는 여타의 정보에 비하여 보다 강력한 보호를 필요로 한다. 본 논문에서는 LBS에 대한 전반적인 사항을 분석하여 문제점을 도출하고, LBS Privacy 문제점을 보호할 수 있는 방안을 제시한다. 최종적으로 제안된 모델은 차세대 LBS 시스템의 개인정보 및 Privacy 보호를 위한 기술적인 대안을 제시하였으며, 차세대 이동통신의 기반 기술이 될 것으로 기대한다.

These days, protecting location privacy has become essential and really challenging, especially protecting it from smart applications and services that rely on Location-Based Services (LBS). As the technology and the services that are based on it are developed, the capability and the experience of the attackers are increased. Therefore, the traditional protection ways cannot be enough and are unable to fully ensure and preserve privacy. Previously, a hybrid approach to privacy has been introduced. It used an obfuscation technique, called Double-Obfuscation Approach (DOA), to improve the privacy level. However, this approach has some weaknesses. The most important ones are the fog nodes that have been overloaded due to the number of communications. It is also unable to prevent the Tracking and Identification attacks in the Mix-Zone technique. For these reasons, this paper introduces a developed and enhanced approach, called Multi-Obfuscation Approach (MOA that mainly depends on the communication between neighboring fog nodes to overcome the drawbacks of the previous approach. As a result, this will increase the resistance to new kinds of attacks and enhance processing. Meanwhile, this approach will increase the level of the users' privacy and their locations protection. To do so, a big enough memory is needed on the users' sides, which already is available these days on their devices. The simulation and the comparison prove that the new approach (MOA) exceeds the DOA in many Standards for privacy protection approaches.

The big data term refers to the great volume of data and complicated data structure with difficulties in collecting, storing, processing, and analyzing these data. Big data analytics refers to the operation of disclosing hidden patterns through big data. This information and data set cloud to be useful and provide advanced services. However, analyzing and processing this information could cause revealing and disclosing some sensitive and personal information when the information is contained in applications that are correlated to users such as location-based services, but concerns are diminished if the applications are correlated to general information such as scientific results. In this work, a survey has been done over security and privacy challenges and approaches in big data. The challenges included here are in each of the following areas: privacy, access control, encryption, and authentication in big data. Likewise, the approaches presented here are privacy-preserving approaches in big data, access control approaches in big data, encryption approaches in big data, and authentication approaches in big data.

Recent development in wireless communication technology, like GPS, and mobile equipments, like PDA and cellular phone, make location-based services (LBSs) popular. However, because, users continuously request a query to a server in the LBSs by using their exact locations, privacy information could be in danger. Therefore, a mechanism for users' privacy protection is required for the safe and comfortable use of LBSs by mobile users. For this, we, in this paper, propose a grid-based cloaking area creation scheme supporting continuous LBSs in peer-to-peer environment. The proposed scheme creates a cloaking area by using Chord protocol, so as to support the continuous LBSs in peer-to-peer environment. Finally, we show from a performance analysis that our cloaking scheme outperforms the existing cloaking schemes, in terms of service time.
