Online social networks (OSNs) are extremely popular among Internet users. However, spam originating from friends and acquaintances in OSNs not only reduces the joy of Internet surfing, but also may cause damage to less security-savvy users. While spam filtering techniques have been significantly advanced, spammers constantly adapt their spamming strategy to avoid detection.

520 $a Online social networks (OSNs) are extremely popular among Internet users. However, spam originating from friends and acquaintances in OSNs not only reduces the joy of Internet surfing, but also may cause damage to less security-savvy users. While spam filtering techniques have been significantly advanced, spammers constantly adapt their spamming strategy to avoid detection.
520 $a In this work, I develop Tangram, a framework that incorporates multiple heterogeneous techniques to mitigate OSN spam and to protect OSN users. The heterogeneous detection techniques attack spam from different angles and complement each other. The system is designed to integrate into the OSN platform. It inspects the user generated message stream and block spam message directly. The process is transparent to OSN users. Tangram contains three major detection modules: i) online campaign discovery module, ii) spam template generation module, and iii) malicious domain group detection module. The online campaign discovery module and the spam template generation module detect OSN spam online, whereas the malicious domain group detection module works offline. Although the offline module does not directly detects OSN spam, it supplies training samples to the online modules.
520 $a The online campaign discovery module exploits the intuition that spam messages are organized in campaigns. Further, the campaign structure can be identified by syntactical similarity between spam messages. Although syntactic-based campaign identification has been used for offline spam analysis, I apply this technique to aid the online spam detection problem with sufficiently low overhead. In addition, a set of novel features that effectively distinguish spam campaigns from legitimate similar message groups are developed. Evaluations show that this module achieves high true positive rate (80.9%) and decently low false positive rate (0.19%).
520 $a The spam template generation module targets a special type of spam generated with underlying templates, based on the measurement of captured OSN spam that shows the majority (63.0%) of it belongs to this type. The template generation technique automatically divides OSN spam messages into segments and uses the segments to construct templates to filter future spam. Experimental results show that it is extremely accurate to throttle template-based spam with 95.7% true positive rate. The induced false positive rate is also low (0.12%).
520 $a The malicious domain group detection module focuses on the temporal correlation between the domain query patterns to detect malicious domains. The detected domains are then used to identify OSN spam messages, thus generates training set for the online spam detection modules in the Tangram framework. Starting with known malicious domains as anchors, this module first identified other domains that exhibit strong temporal correlation with anchor domains in their query patterns. The identified domains are candidate malicious domains. After that, an additional refinement step clusters the candidate domains according to their query patterns to filter domains that are accidentally queried together with the anchor domains.
