Abstract

This paper will propose a method for cloud-based web services to improve end-user trust. Current web services fall victim to degrading trust due to a lack of transparency over an application’s activities with user data. Third parties are integrated with web services to improve the user experience, cost-effectiveness, and overall service. With the added benefits, data vulnerabilities should not be ignored. Data sharing that occurs between third parties introduces benefits for the web operator over the data originator. When a data incident occurs, like data misuse, unauthorized data access, or data sharing without user knowledge, the user is the greatest victim. The proposed framework will allow web services to integrate web 3.0 protocols into the privacy policy to demonstrate commitment to maintaining data quality before and after an incident. This will maintain trust by creating agreements with users directly.
