These social networking sites have both positive and negative impacts on students. The majority of students use smartphones for accessing social media and all other online activities. This paves way for two types of security issues such as social media security issues and smartphone security issues. Thereby we have to eradicate the smartphone and social networking threats by implementing Centralized Cyber Security and Device Management System (CCSDMS). In this project we use Graph Model for Conflict Resolution (GMCR II) software tool, for the effective implementation of Centralized Cyber Security and Device Management System.

Cell phones have crept into an owner’s possession at all times. “The mobile phone has become a part of us: our best friend who will save all our secrets, pleasures and sorrows” ("Exploring"). Teens have developed the need to know the latest news on social media every minute of every day; they do not want to miss any little detail.

(Brandtzaeg 1008) The social media depend on net-based technologies to generate the network for users to share. Social media includes everything that has to do with the Internet. By using the Internet, users can communicate with people locally and worldwide. People are no longer required to travel across the world to experience another culture. This can be done with social networking. The types of social media today come with many different types of communication such as social blogs, wall-postings, songs, photographs, and podcasts. The communication between users is informational, interactive, and also educational. However, unfortunately, most social networking sites keep track of all the interactions that take place, and this is a concern about Internet privacy for Facebook, Twitter, Google, and other social media users.
