However, there have been many issues related to information privacy management which can contribute towards society perception on integrity among public servants. This study aimed to identify the effect of the intensity of the use of Facebook, selfmonitoring skills, and organization privacy orientation towards managing the Facebook privacy. The theoretical framework of this study is built upon the Theory of Communication Management. A cross-sectional survey was conducted among the civil servants from the state agencies, federal and statutory bodies of Kedah state. A total of 183 respondents, which were identified through a random sampling method, were involved for this study. The questionnaire survey consists of four instruments to measure variables, namely Facebook Intensity Scale, Scale Self-Monitoring, Organizational Privacy Orientation, and Facebook Privacy Management Scale. Data obtained, were analyzed descriptively in mean and standard deviation using SPSS. Inferential analysis was conducted using the Partial Least Square - Structural Equation Modeling (PLS- SEM) with the aid of SmartPLS 3.0. The results showed that organization privacy management and self-monitoring skills have a significant influence on the confidence level of 5% towards the intensity Facebook usage. In addition, the intensity of Facebook usage, organization privacy orientation and selfmonitoring skills also have significant influence on the management of Facebook privacy. This study describes the role of the individual evaluation factors and social environment of the organization in determining the Facebook privacy management. The findings of this study can be utilized to develop an awareness program which is related to the management of online information privacy to ensure the credibility of each public servant

An Examination of the Impact of Gender and Culture on Facebook Privacy and Trust in Guam

Facebook, the world’s largest social network, allows users to develop a profile containing personal information. Users may choose privacy settings to control information access, but improper settings risk personal exposure. Several US studies examining gender differences in privacy management found that females have more privacy concerns. This study investigates gender differences in Facebook privacy settings among college students in Guam, a US territory whose ethnicity and culture differ from mainland US. Results show that neither gender trusts Facebook nor feels Facebook protects them. Significant differences in number and type of privacy settings indicate females are more security conscious. Gender differences exist in three of Hofstede’s five cultural factors, but only Masculinity-Femininity significantly influences perceptions of Facebook Privacy and Facebook Trust. There is also evidence of “privacy paradox” phenomenon. Summarizing for the case in Guam, the findings indicate that culture, in particular Masculinity-Femininity, influences the formation of perceptions regarding both trust in social media and the privacy protection provided by social media, while gender can influence the protective measures actually taken by individuals

Family Communication, Privacy, and Facebook

Four focus groups were conducted to explore how college students communicate with family members through Facebook. Communication Privacy Management served as the theoretical basis for the analysis, which suggested students balance privacy concerns with a desire to maintain and strengthen familial relationships. Participants described largely positive experiences communicating with family members on Facebook

Facebook: Where privacy concerns and social needs collide

Facebook is an integral part of today’s social landscape, but Facebook use involves compromising one’s privacy in relation to both other users and to the Facebook corporation and its affiliated businesses. This analysis explores respondents’ reasons for using Facebook together with their Facebook-related privacy concerns, and how these factors influence self-disclosures and privacy management strategies on the site. Also explored are respondents’ perceptions both of what the Facebook corporation ‘knows’ about them and with whom it shares their data. The research is based on the concepts of user-user and user-corporate privacy concerns versus the social needs of self-portrayal and belonging. Self-portrayal (inspired by Friedlander, 2011) is explored in the contexts of both strategic self-presentation and expression of the true self, and belonging is explored in the contexts of both intimacy and affiliation. These concepts have been drawn from a combination of psychological theories together with existing research on privacy concerns and social needs on social networking sites. Respondents completed an online questionnaire over a six week period from late August to early October 2014, and a focus group was held in November 2014. The questionnaire was largely quantitative but allowed for qualitative input via text boxes. There were 404 completed and valid responses, and of the demographic factors tested, gender was most strongly associated with Facebook-related privacy concerns and age was most strongly associated with reasons for using Facebook. Respondents indicated a clash between fulfilling their social needs on Facebook and their privacy concerns on the site. However, these concerns did not, for the most part, stop them using Facebook, although in certain instances respondents employed tactics to minimise their privacy concerns. This thesis argues that, when using Facebook, respondents resolved the privacy paradox to the best of their ability. It is anticipated that the findings of this thesis will contribute to the ongoing dialogue surrounding the benefits and drawbacks of social media use

An Exploratory Study of a User\u27s Facebook Security and Privacy Settings

There are many potential security risks with social networking sites and the individuals who use them. These sites have been adopted by people of all ages worldwide, empowering new opportunities for the presentation of the self-learning, construction of a wide circle of relationships, and the management of privacy and intimacy. This study analyses the effect of social networking security practices, more specifically Facebook and its security and privacy settings. We identify four hypotheses: The more important Facebook users believe security is an important factor in choosing a social network, the more often they will change their security settings, the more important protection against ID theft is for Facebook users, the more frequently they will change their privacy settings, Facebook users who have left their security on a default setting have more frequently fallen victim to a virus or malware attack, and users of Facebook who have their privacy set to a custom setting are less likely to receive an attack on their profile

“We Were Not Prepared to Tell People Yet”: Confidentiality Breaches and Boundary Turbulence on Facebook

Communication Privacy Management theory provides a framework for investigating confidentiality breaches that occur on Facebook. Open-ended online questionnaires served as mechanism for collecting data about privacy violations and the resulting boundary turbulence. Privacy violations validated three a priori categories (Petronio & Reierson, 2009) of confidentiality breaches (privacy ownership violations, discrepancy breaches of privacy, and pre-emptive privacy control). Findings indicated that the lack of established explicit privacy rules led to privacy violations and boundary turbulence. Results also provided insight regarding motivations of privacy violations, reactions to privacy violations, and the role of privacy rules in the violation

Pretty Private Group Management

Group management is a fundamental building block of today's Internet applications. Mailing lists, chat systems, collaborative document edition but also online social networks such as Facebook and Twitter use group management systems. In many cases, group security is required in the sense that access to data is restricted to group members only. Some applications also require privacy by keeping group members anonymous and unlinkable. Group management systems routinely rely on a central authority that manages and controls the infrastructure and data of the system. Personal user data related to groups then becomes de facto accessible to the central authority. In this paper, we propose a completely distributed approach for group management based on distributed hash tables. As there is no enrollment to a central authority, the created groups can be leveraged by various applications. Following this paradigm we describe a protocol for such a system. We consider security and privacy issues inherently introduced by removing the central authority and provide a formal validation of security properties of the system using AVISPA. We demonstrate the feasibility of this protocol by implementing a prototype running on top of Vuze's DHT

Publicly Private: Disclosing Grief on Facebook*

This essay examines the transition of the grieving process into the online realm of social network sites—specifically Facebook—through two prominent communication theories: social penetration theory and communication privacy management theory. The desire for both openness and human connection through the disclosure of personal information and the maintaining of privacy boundaries is made evident by analyzing this social phenomenon through these two theories. Disclosing grief on Facebook can be advantageous by developing relational closeness among mourners, but it can also create discomfort when acquaintances, or people with less intimate relationships with the discloser, view the personal feelings of loss. Additionally, disclosing such private information on Facebook calls into question matters of privacy ownership, boundary creation, and boundary turbulence. This social phenomenon broadens the scopes of these theories by transitioning them from simply traditional face-to-face communication to computer-mediated communication

Data security, control and privacy management of facebook usage among undergraduate students / Mohamad Ridhuan Mat Dangi … [et al.]

Facebook is one of the most popular social networking sites with millions of users around the globe. However, most users overlooked their privacy management where their personal information are exposed and might be misused by others. This study was conducted on 290 respondents on a particular university regarding their Facebook usage upon data security and privacy control. A non-experimental research, particularly descriptive research and correlational research were applied in order to identify whether privacy and data security concerns, perceived privacy control and privacy concerns have a relationship with individual privacy management. Majority (91%) respondents have been using Facebook for more than 2 years, but most of them were not addicted to it. Maintaining relationship with friends and family members were the main reason why the respondents use Facebook. Other reasons given are to join a specific class group or club, to read news, to get the latest information and current issues. The regression analysis shows all hypotheses were supported in which every unit increase in independent variables will increase the dependent variable, while correlation indicated a positive relationship between privacy and data security concerns (PDSC) on Facebook r = .385, and perceived privacy control (PPC) r = .487, with individual privacy management. Privacy concern (PC) showed a moderate positive relationship as represented r = .577
