Abstract |
|
Sybil attacks are one of the well-known and powerful attacks against online social networks. Sybil users propagate spam or unfairly increase the influence of target users. However, sybil users alone do not harm the system. What is really dangerous that multiple sybil users collude together and form a sybil clutch. In this paper, we present the first attempt to identify and validate sybil clutches in online social networks. We build sybil clutch detector based on multiple attributes such as based on last login time, register time, friend establishment time etc. Our sybil clutch apprehension and attestation mechanisms have important implications for system design to defend against sybil attacks in online social networks.we verify that the largemajority of links between Sybil accounts are created accidentally, unbeknownst to the attacker. |
