A computer-implemented process of altering original data in a dataset, in which original data is anonymised and a digital watermark is included in the anonymised data. Anonymising the original data incurs information loss, and the process of including the digital watermark does not add significant further information loss. The original data can be a tabular file, a relational or a non-relational database, or the results of interactive database queries. Anonymising the data is achieved using one or more techniques that perturb the original data, such as tokenisation, generalisation; data blurring, synthetic record insertion, record removal or re-ordering.
