Quasi-identifiers are pieces of information that are not of themselves unique identifiers, but are sufficiently well correlated with an entity that they can be combined with other quasi-identifiers to create a unique identifier.
Automated Determination of Quasi-Identifiers Using Program Analysis
A system and method for automated determination of quasi-identifiers for sensitive data fields in a dataset are provided. In one aspect, the system and method identifies quasi-identifier fields in the dataset based upon a static analysis of program statements in a computer program having access to—sensitive data fields in the dataset. In another aspect, the system and method identifies quasi-identifier fields based upon a dynamic analysis of program statements in a computer program having access to—sensitive data fields in the dataset. Once such quasi-identifiers have been identified, the data stored in such fields may be anonymized using techniques such as k-anonymity. As a result, the data in the anonymized quasi-identifiers fields cannot be used to infer a value stored in a sensitive data field in the dataset.

Database anonymization for use in testing database-centric applications
ActiveUS20120036135A1Digital data processing detailsComputer security arrangementsDatabase queryAnalysis data
At least one quasi-identifier attribute of a plurality of ranked attributes is selected for use in anonymizing a database. Each of the ranked attributes is ranked according to that attribute's effect on a database-centric application (DCA) being tested. In an embodiment, the selected quasi-identifier attribute(s) has the least effect on the DCA. The database is anonymized based on the selected quasi-identifier attribute(s) to provide a partially-anonymized database, which may then be provided to a testing entity for use in testing the DCA. In an embodiment, during execution of the DCA, instances of database queries are captured and analyzed to identify a plurality of attributes from the database and, for each such attribute identified, the effect of the attribute on the DCA is quantified. In this manner, databases can be selectively anonymized in order to balance the requirements of data privacy against the utility of the data for testing purposes.

The invention discloses a privacy protection method in multi-sensitive-attribute data release, and solves the problem of poor quality of quasi-identifier data in multi-sensitive-attribute data release. The basic thinking of the invention is as follows that: firstly, clustering is executed on data sets, the data sets of which quasi-identifiers are similar are aggregated into one aggregate, and a plurality of data aggregates are generated; secondly, a multi-dimension bucket structure is constructed on the basis of sensitive attributes, and data records are mapped into the multi-dimension bucket structure according to values of the sensitive attributes; and then on the basis of multi-dimension buckets, grouping is carried out, i.e., main sensitive attributes are selected, dimension capacity of the main sensitive attributes is calculated, L (L is greater than or equal to 2) main sensitive attributes with the maximum dimension capacity are selected, one data record is respectively selected from the L main sensitive attributes, whether the data records meet the multi-sensitive-attribute L-diversity is judged, and if not, each bucket is sequentially traversed according to the capacity from big to small until the data records meet the multi-sensitive-attribute L-diversity. The process is repeated until the data in the buckets do not meet the multi-sensitive-attribute L-diversity. Finally, all groups are subjected to anonymization processing.

A privacy protection data publishing method based on conditional probability distribution
ActiveCN109543445AAvoiding the choice problemProtect data privacyDigital data protectionData setPrivacy protection
The invention belongs to the technical field of information security and privacy protection, and is a privacy protection data publishing method based on conditional probability distribution. Accordingto the conditional probability distribution, an attacker's prior knowledge is modeled so that the attacker has different prior knowledge in different transactions. Then using the constructed model and quasi-identifier attribute value, the sensitive attribute value of each record is predicted, and the original value is replaced with the predicted value, and then published. There is no direct correlation between the predicted values of the published sensitive attributes and the original values, which effectively protects the privacy of user data. The predicted distribution of sensitive attribute values is similar to the real distribution, which effectively controls the distribution error and ensures the availability of the published dataset better than that of the generalized and stochasticresponse method. The invention can provide privacy protection mechanism for data release in various social fields such as medical treatment, finance, credit generation, transportation and the like, and provides support for application of data in scientific research and social service while protecting user data privacy.
