In this paper an attempt is made to review technological, economical and legal aspects of the spam in detail. The technical details will include different techniques of spam control e.g., filtering techniques, Genetic Algorithm, Memory Based Classifier, Support Vector Machine Method, etc. The economic aspect includes Shaping/Rate Throttling Approach/Economic Filtering and Pricing/Payment based spam control. Finally, the paper discusses the legal provisions for the control of spam. The scope of the legal options is limited to USA, European Union, New Zealand, Canada, Britain and Australia.

Nowadays, with the rise of Internet access and mobile devices around the globe, more people are using social networks for collaboration and receiving real-time information. Twitter, the microblogging that is becoming a critical source of communicatio n and news propagation, has grabbed the attention of spammers to distract users. So far, researchers have introduced various defense techniques to detect spams and combat spammer activities on Twitter. To overcome this problem, in recent years, many novel techniques have been offered by researchers, which have greatly enhanced the spam detection performance. Therefore, it raises a motivation to conduct a systematic review about different approaches of spam detection on Twitter. This review focuses on comparing the existing research techniques on Twitter spam detection systematically. Literature review analysis reveals that most of the existing methods rely on Machine Learning-based algorithms. Among these Machine Learning algorithms, the major differences are related to various feature selection methods. Hence, we propose a taxonomy based on different feature selection methods and analyses, namely content analysis, user analysis, tweet analysis, network analysis, and hybrid analysis. Then, we present numerical analyses and comparative studies on current approaches, coming up with open challenges that help researchers develop solutions in this topic.
The popularity, cost-effectiveness and ease of information exchange that electronic mails offer to electronic device users has been plagued with the rising number of unsolicited or spam emails. Driven by the need to protect email users from this grow ing menace, research in spam email filtering/detection systems has being increasingly active in the last decade. However, the adaptive nature of spam emails has often rendered most of these systems ineffective. While several spam detection models have been reported in literature, the reported performance on an out of sample test data shows the room for more improvement. Presented in this research is an improved spam detection model based on Extreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost) which to the best of our knowledge has received little attention spam email detection problems. Experimental results show that the proposed model outperforms earlier approaches across a wide range of evaluation metrics. A thorough analysis of the model results in comparison to the results of earlier works is also presented.
The availability-finality dilemma says that blockchain protocols cannot be both available under dynamic participation and safe under network partition. Snap-and-chat protocols have recently been proposed as a resolution to this dilemma. A snap-and-ch at protocol produces an always available ledger containing a finalized prefix ledger which is always safe and catches up with the available ledger whenever network conditions permit. In contrast to existing handcrafted finality gadget based designs like Ethereum 2.0s consensus protocol Gasper, snap-and-chat protocols are constructed as a black-box composition of off-the-shelf BFT and longest chain protocols. In this paper, we consider system aspects of snap-and-chat protocols and show how they can provide two important features: 1) accountability, 2) support of light clients. Through this investigation, a deeper understanding of the strengths and challenges of snap-and-chat protocols is gained.
Multisite medical data sharing is critical in modern clinical practice and medical research. The challenge is to conduct data sharing that preserves individual privacy and data usability. The shortcomings of traditional privacy-enhancing technologies mean that institutions rely on bespoke data sharing contracts. These contracts increase the inefficiency of data sharing and may disincentivize important clinical treatment and medical research. This paper provides a synthesis between two novel advanced privacy enhancing technologies (PETs): Homomorphic Encryption and Secure Multiparty Computation (defined together as Multiparty Homomorphic Encryption or MHE). These PETs provide a mathematical guarantee of privacy, with MHE providing a performance advantage over separately using HE or SMC. We argue MHE fulfills legal requirements for medical data sharing under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) which has set a global benchmark for data protection. Specifically, the data processed and shared using MHE can be considered anonymized data. We explain how MHE can reduce the reliance on customized contractual measures between institutions. The proposed approach can accelerate the pace of medical research whilst offering additional incentives for healthcare and research institutes to employ common data interoperability standards.
WhatsApp is a popular messaging app used by over a billion users around the globe. Due to this popularity, spam on WhatsApp is an important issue. Despite this, the distribution of spam via WhatsApp remains understudied by researchers, in part becaus e of the end-to-end encryption offered by the platform. This paper addresses this gap by studying spam on a dataset of 2.6 million messages sent to 5,051 public WhatsApp groups in India over 300 days. First, we characterise spam content shared within public groups and find that nearly 1 in 10 messages is spam. We observe a wide selection of topics ranging from job ads to adult content, and find that spammers post both URLs and phone numbers to promote material. Second, we inspect the nature of spammers themselves. We find that spam is often disseminated by groups of phone numbers, and that spam messages are generally shared for longer duration than non-spam messages. Finally, we devise content and activity based detection algorithms that can counter spam.
