Multifarious protocols have been implemented to secure the confidential data of the users, but these protocols have various limitations and are incapable of providing secrecy of data against various attacks, such as replay and cryptanalysis attacks. In this article, the authors proposed a novel method for security verification of the social network model using an improved three-party authenticated key exchange (3PAKE) protocol based on symmetric encryption and (ECC) elliptic curve cryptography. The outcome of the paper demonstrates that our proposed algorithm provides the desired secrecy to the confidential data exchange over social networks in real-time and consumes less time in comparison to existing protocols. Our protocol consumes a search time of 0.09 s, overall communication steps took 2 during the verification, and depth plies was 3 along with 20 visited nodes. The 3PAKE protocol has been considered a suitable approach for social network secrecy during information exchange between user and server, thereby providing greater secrecy to the user in data exchange over social networks and more robustness against multifarious known attacks, such as cryptanalysis and replay attacks in real-time date: 2022 publication: Symmetry volume: 14 number: 8 pagerange: 1567 id_number: doi:10.3390/sym14081567 refereed: TRUE issn: 2073-8994 official_url: http://doi.org/10.3390/sym14081567 access: open language: en citation: Artículo Materias > Ingeniería Universidad Internacional Iberoamericana México > Investigación > Producción Científica Abierto Inglés The proper verification of users plays a vital role during communication over a social network to protect the personal data of users.
