In this paper we discuss emerging security and safety applications of Online Social Networks (OSNs). Due to high worldwide popularity social networking can be considered not only as an effective communication channel and efficient information sharing platform, but also as a useful mechanism to enhance public safety and security, including crisis response and recovery efforts, urban operations, homeland security, and mass events planning. Therefore, in this paper we present real examples of how OSNs can be used for those purposes. We conclude by proposing a correlation framework that can effectively increase capabilities of OSN data management and processing for public safety. © 2013 Springer-Verlag.
