  Link Prediction is an important and well-studied problem for social networks.
Given a snapshot of a graph, the link prediction problem predicts which new
interactions between members are most likely to occur in the near future. As
networks grow in size, data owners are forced to store the data in remote cloud
servers which reveals sensitive information about the network. The graphs are
therefore stored in encrypted form.
  We study the link prediction problem on encrypted graphs. To the best of our
knowledge, this secure link prediction problem has not been studied before. We
use the number of common neighbors for prediction. We present three algorithms
for the secure link prediction problem. We design prototypes of the schemes and
formally prove their security. We execute our algorithms in real-life datasets.
