Abstract:
The technologies of information and communications are part of our day to day activities. From computers to smartphones and with the success of social media and the Internet of Things (IoT), we are now surrounded and fully part of a digital society that produces a big amount of data. In this context, privacy is raising importance in computing and information technology. In this article, we propose a study of the privacy research community. We examine over 13,646 articles published on privacy during the last ten years. We focus our analysis on co-authorship and identify the dynamics and key researchers of this domain.
