Research conducted by Dr. Sanaz Taheri Boshrooyeh, a Ph.D. graduate of Koç University, Computer Science and Engineering Program, together with Prof. Dr. Alptekin Küpçü and Prof. Dr. Öznur Özkasap, has led to the development of a new scalable method designed to protect user privacy on online platforms that rely on invitation-based registration. The system, called “Anonyma,” prevents even system administrators from identifying who invited a particular user to join the platform, addressing a significant privacy concern in such systems. The research and analysis results were published in Journal of Network and Computer Applications.
