Abstract
Social network analysis (SNA) has been widely explored to support intelligence and law enforcement agencies in investigating the terrorist and criminal social networks. It is valuable in identifying terrorists, suspects, subgroups, and their communication patterns. Many related works on criminal and terrorist SNA have been published in the Intelligence and Security Informatics conference series (www.isiconference.org). Although SNA has been proven to be important in security informatics, there are practical limitations in applying these techniques to conduct a large-scale analysis. Terrorist and criminal social network data is usually generated by intelligence and law enforcement agencies. Sharing across agencies is generally restricted, if not prohibited due to the privacy concerns. As a result, using such limited social network data diminishes the SNA performance. In some cases, results could incorrectly identify a criminal subgroup or be unable to identify a direct connection between terrorists. It is crucial to develop appropriate privacy-preserving social network algorithms that work with social network integration. [1st paragraph]
