This book offers a broad cohesive overview of the field of data privacy. It discusses from a
technological perspective the problems and solutions of the three main communities working on
data privacy: statistical disclosure control (those with a statistical background)
privacy-preserving data mining (those working with data bases and data mining) and
privacy-enhancing technologies (those involved in communications and security)
communities.Presenting different approaches the book describes alternative privacy models and
disclosure risk measures as well as data protection procedures for respondent holder and user
privacy. It also discusses specific data privacy problems and solutions for readers who need to
deal with big data.
