Abstract: Abstract: - The paper aims at providing technical as well as social aspects akin to 'Security Vs Usability' in restricted user forums within a Social Network Site (SNS). As per surveys conducted in US, security of data plays a vital role in restricted user groups of SNS, such as in a Virtual Private Network (VPN). Therefore authentication & processing becomes an important event in security of network programming. However, as far as a common user is concerned, when security is given a higher priority by the system, the usability for the user is then affected. This has been observed from survey conducted in South India. Conducive user environment is preferred particularly for SNS. The paper presents security features, derived from technical study and usability issues, obtained from Social survey in restricted user forums of a selected SNS that has been experimented and validated. Signature based authentications for security is elaborated. The paper also presents res!
ults obtained from social survey study that are based on feedback analysis conducted on security as well as usability issues from user respondents (based on purposive sampling). The results and the findings will be of immense use to SSN designers and researchers.
