QuestionQ275

Privacy Enhancing Technologies

An organization plans to share customers’ personal information with an outside marketing agency. To safeguard customer privacy, customer names and account numbers would be anonymized before the transfer. As a privacy technologist, which of the following anonymization techniques would you recommend?

  • A Hashing.
  • B Fuzzing.
  • C Noise addition.
  • D Suppression.
Explanation

Suppression protects privacy by removing direct identifiers, such as customer names and account numbers, before the data is disclosed to an external party. This prevents those identifying values from being shared.
