Abstract: Various embodiments of a system, method and computer program product for normalizing data obtained from a plurality of social networks coupled to a network such as the Internet are disclosed. The system may include an interface adapted to access information from a plurality of social networks. The information that is obtained from each social network may include personal information about with the user as well as social graphs of the user that map the user to his or her friends. A data analyzer may be provided to compare the personal information obtained from the plurality of social networks to determine a normalized set of personal information for the user. The data analyzer may also compare the social graphs to determine a normalized set of friends associated with the user.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide a third-party system that allows parents or authorized guardians to continually grant permissions to several websites and online services and provides a one-time-authentication process of the parent-child relationship. Through this system, the need to re-authenticate the parent-child relationship or for each online company to build their own authentication system and COPPA record keeping mechanisms can be reduced or eliminated. In addition, the embodiments provided herein may afford a service for managing COPPA compliance that is relatively easy for online companies to integrate into their online services and websites.

Abstract: Various embodiments of a system, method and computer program product for assessing an aggregate risk score for a user of a social network's online activities are described. The system may include an interface adapted to obtain information about online activities concerning a subject via a network such as the Internet. An analyzing component may be provided to analyze the collected information in order to find one or more potential dangers to the subject. The analyzing component may then associate a severity level to each identified potential danger and then assigning a weight to each identified potential danger based on its associated severity level and the current age of the identified potential danger. Next, the analyzer may aggregate the weighted identified potential dangers in order to obtain an aggregate online risk score for the subject.
