The National Science Foundation awarded a $100,000 Project Grant to The University of Texas at Arlington under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.075) to develop a framework for monitoring social media discussions around online security and privacy safeguards from January 15, 2023 through December 31, 2023. The university will capture emerging collective intelligence shared on social media platforms regarding safeguards to improve online security, privacy, and safety. It will detect, collect, and categorize social media posts in English and other languages discussing new security vulnerabilities, privacy threats, and evaluations of safeguard tools. Advanced natural language processing methods will be used to extract knowledge from these online discussions to help researchers, companies, and individuals enhance security and privacy protections.
