This commentary paper gives a summary of threats in intimate relationships, which are a type of privacy threats which can result inside families, romantic relationships, friendships, and other close relationships. A lot of popular assumptions about privacy are dispatched in these types of relationships. In fact, plenty of other effective measures tend to fail when applied to these intimate threats. We look into a wide range of intimate relationships and define common features. Therefore, based on these features, we then expand on the ramifications for technical privacy design and policy. Then finally suggest a design recommendation. There are two main security issues in intimate relationships, privacy & authentication related issues. Such privacy issues have been noticed in online learning training in post covid era. A great amount of users in intimate relationships are encountering problems in usability. Most of the issues are due to authentication procedures, sharing passwords, etc.

Abstract


This commentary paper gives a summary of threats in intimate relationships, which are a type of privacy threats which can result inside families, romantic relationships, friendships, and other close relationships. A lot of popular assumptions about privacy are dispatched in these types of relationships. In fact, plenty of other effective measures tend to fail when applied to these intimate threats. We look into a wide range of intimate relationships and define common features. Therefore, based on these features, we then expand on the ramifications for technical privacy design and policy. Then finally suggest a design recommendation. There are two main security issues in intimate relationships, privacy & authentication related issues. Such privacy issues have been noticed in online learning training in post covid era. A great amount of users in intimate relationships are encountering problems in usability. Most of the issues are due to authentication procedures, sharing passwords, etc.
