Summary of thesis

Along with the widespread use of mobile applications in our society the pervasive abundance of information raises questions about citizen’s privacy, knowing that there is no privacy without security and that identity stealth is at the base of many cyber- crimes. This proposal presents my research in progress to design an adaptive system for context-aware mobile user privacy preserving management. With the aim to address different gaps in the existing literature on which factor(s) affecting mobile user adoption of privacy management applications, the results indicate that (1) the characteristics of an adaptive privacy management system. (2) An economically sustainable trade-off between the personal data disclosed and user’s payoff by using a location-based mobile service in privacy management system. (3) Use of context-awareness to improve single sign-on solutions (SSO) for mobile users’ privacy management.
