English Abstract

In recent times the interest in internet users to social networking has increased, so it became the appropriate environment for media organizations, political personalities, artists and famous social figures for interaction with admirers and friends.

This group is called "VIP," where the presence of a personal page on Facebook on the website is currently important for them, especially if they have their own website.

The real threat to these pages is violation of privacy and theft of identity through creating fake pages that exploit their names and pictures to attract the victims and spread of lies, but unfortunately, there is no effective mechanism that gives trust in dealing with these pages and verify the real identity of the owners page, as well as increase level of privacy protection.

The proposed architecture works as a third party that is added to Facebook to provide the trust service to personal pages for VIPs.

Through this mechanism, it works to ensure the real identity of the applicant through the electronic authentication of personal information by storing this information within content of their website.

The indication trust on the personal page of a subscriber in the trust service is the appearance of the trust-logo appears within the photograph profile on Facebook, through which friends and admirers can easily recognize and distinguish it from other fake ones, in addition to privacy protection.

As a result, the general significance of the new security system is that it secures and provides trust to the personal pages of the increasing number of VIP subscribers on Facebook who seek such a service.

Further, it can help to discover fake page, reduce crimes of personality-theft, protect the privacy, and increase the sense of trust and satisfaction by friends and admirers in interacting with Facebook.
