What is anonymisation?
M14: Privacy engineering
Altering data to prevent identification of individuals.
What is pseudonymisation?
M14: Privacy engineering
Replacing private identifiers with fake identifiers to protect personal data.
What is k-anonymity?
M14: Privacy engineering
A method to anonymize data by ensuring each data point is indistinguishable from at least k- others.
What is differential privacy?
M14: Privacy engineering
A technique that adds noise to data to protect individual privacy while allowing data analysis.
What is homomorphic encryption?
M14: Privacy engineering
Encryption that allows computations on encrypted data without decrypting it.
What is secure multiparty computation?
M14: Privacy engineering
A method where multiple parties compute a function without revealing their inputs to each other.
What is the purpose of data masking?
M14: Privacy engineering
To hide the true values of data to protect privacy.
