Privacy Preserving Mining on Vertically Partitioned Database

This system allows multiple data owners to outsource their data in a common could. This paper mainly emphases on privacy preserving mining on vertically partitioned database. It provides an even solution to protect data owner's raw data from the other data owners. To achieve secure outsourcing technique, the system proposes a cloud-aided frequent itemset mining solution. The run time in this system is one order higher than non-privacy preserving mining algorithms

A Review on: Association Rule Mining Using Privacy for Partitioned Database

Data Analysis techniques that are Association manage mining and Frequent thing set mining are two prominent and broadly utilized for different applications. The conventional framework concentrated independently on vertically parceled database and on a level plane apportioned databases on the premise of this presenting a framework which concentrate on both on a level plane and vertically divided databases cooperatively with protection safeguarding component. Information proprietors need to know the continuous thing sets or affiliation rules from an aggregate information set and unveil or uncover as few data about their crude information as could reasonably be expected to other information proprietors and outsiders. To guarantee information protection a Symmetric Encryption Technique is utilized to show signs of improvement result. Cloud supported successive thing set mining arrangement used to exhibit an affiliation govern mining arrangement. The subsequent arrangements are intended for outsourced databases that permit various information proprietors to proficiently share their information safely without trading off on information protection. Information security is one of the key procedures in outsourcing information to different outside clients. Customarily Fast Distribution Mining calculation was proposed for securing conveyed information. These business locales an issue by secure affiliation governs over parceled information in both even and vertical. A Frequent thing sets calculation and Distributed affiliation administer digging calculation is used for doing above method adequately in divided information, which incorporates administrations of the information in outsourcing process for disseminated databases. This work keeps up or keeps up proficient security over vertical and flat perspective of representation in secure mining applications

Privacy by Design in Data Mining

Privacy is ever-growing concern in our society: the lack of reliable privacy safeguards in many current services and devices is the basis of a diffusion that is often more limited than expected. Moreover, people feel reluctant to provide true personal data, unless it is absolutely necessary. Thus, privacy is becoming a fundamental aspect to take into account when one wants to use, publish and analyze data involving sensitive information. Many recent research works have focused on the study of privacy protection: some of these studies aim at individual privacy, i.e., the protection of sensitive individual data, while others aim at corporate privacy, i.e., the protection of strategic information at organization level. Unfortunately, it is in- creasingly hard to transform the data in a way that it protects sensitive information: we live in the era of big data characterized by unprecedented opportunities to sense, store and analyze complex data which describes human activities in great detail and resolution. As a result anonymization simply cannot be accomplished by de-identification. In the last few years, several techniques for creating anonymous or obfuscated versions of data sets have been proposed, which essentially aim to find an acceptable trade-off between data privacy on the one hand and data utility on the other. So far, the common result obtained is that no general method exists which is capable of both dealing with “generic personal data” and preserving “generic analytical results”. In this thesis we propose the design of technological frameworks to counter the threats of undesirable, unlawful effects of privacy violation, without obstructing the knowledge discovery opportunities of data mining technologies. Our main idea is to inscribe privacy protection into the knowledge discovery technol- ogy by design, so that the analysis incorporates the relevant privacy requirements from the start. Therefore, we propose the privacy-by-design paradigm that sheds a new light on the study of privacy protection: once specific assumptions are made about the sensitive data and the target mining queries that are to be answered with the data, it is conceivable to design a framework to: a) transform the source data into an anonymous version with a quantifiable privacy guarantee, and b) guarantee that the target mining queries can be answered correctly using the transformed data instead of the original ones. This thesis investigates on two new research issues which arise in modern Data Mining and Data Privacy: individual privacy protection in data publishing while preserving specific data mining analysis, and corporate privacy protection in data mining outsourcing

Usability heuristics for fast crime data anonymization in resource-constrained contexts

This thesis considers the case of mobile crime-reporting systems that have emerged as an effective and efficient data collection method in low and middle-income countries. Analyzing the data, can be helpful in addressing crime. Since law enforcement agencies in resource-constrained context typically do not have the expertise to handle these tasks, a cost-effective strategy is to outsource the data analytics tasks to third-party service providers. However, because of the sensitivity of the data, it is expedient to consider the issue of privacy. More specifically, this thesis considers the issue of finding low-intensive computational solutions to protecting the data even from an "honest-but-curious" service provider, while at the same time generating datasets that can be queried efficiently and reliably. This thesis offers a three-pronged solution approach. Firstly, the creation of a mobile application to facilitate crime reporting in a usable, secure and privacy-preserving manner. The second step proposes a streaming data anonymization algorithm, which analyses reported data based on occurrence rate rather than at a preset time on a static repository. Finally, in the third step the concept of using privacy preferences in creating anonymized datasets was considered. By taking into account user preferences the efficiency of the anonymization process is improved upon, which is beneficial in enabling fast data anonymization. Results from the prototype implementation and usability tests indicate that having a usable and covet crime-reporting application encourages users to declare crime occurrences. Anonymizing streaming data contributes to faster crime resolution times, and user privacy preferences are helpful in relaxing privacy constraints, which makes for more usable data from the querying perspective. This research presents considerable evidence that the concept of a three-pronged solution to addressing the issue of anonymity during crime reporting in a resource-constrained environment is promising. This solution can further assist the law enforcement agencies to partner with third party in deriving useful crime pattern knowledge without infringing on users' privacy. In the future, this research can be extended to more than one low-income or middle-income countries

PRIVACY-PRESERVING QUERY PROCESSING ON OUTSOURCED DATABASES IN CLOUD COMPUTING

Database-as-a-Service (DBaaS) is a category of cloud computing services that enables IT providers to deliver database functionality as a service. In this model, a third party service provider known as a cloud server hosts a database and provides the associated software and hardware supports. Database outsourcing reduces the workload of the data owner in answering queries by delegating the tasks to powerful third-party servers with large computational and network resources. Despite the economic and technical benefits, privacy is the primary challenge posed by this category of services. By using these services, the data owners will lose the control of their databases. Moreover, the privacy of clients may be compromised since a curious cloud operator can follow the queries of a client and infer what the client is after. The challenge is to fulfill the main privacy goals of both the data owner and the clients without undermining the ability of the cloud server to return the correct query results. This thesis considers the design of protocols that protect the privacy of the clients and the data owners in the DBaaS model. Such protocols must protect the privacy of the clients so that the data owner and the cloud server cannot infer the constants contained in the query predicate as well as the query result. Moreover, the data owner privacy should be preserved by ensuring that the sensitive information in the database is not leaked to the cloud server and nothing beyond the query result is revealed to the clients. The results of the complexity and performance analysis indicates that the proposed protocols incur reasonable communication and computation overhead on the client and the data owner, considering the added advantage of being able to perform the symmetrically-private database search

Secure MultiParty Protocol for Differentially-Private Data Release

In the era where big data is the new norm, a higher emphasis has been placed on models which guarantees the release and exchange of data. The need for privacy-preserving data arose as more sophisticated data-mining techniques led to breaches of sensitive information. In this thesis, we present a secure multiparty protocol for the purpose of integrating multiple datasets simultaneously such that the contents of each dataset is not revealed to any of the data owners, and the contents of the integrated data do not compromise individual’s privacy. We utilize privacy by simulation to prove that the protocol is privacy-preserving, and we show that the output data satisfies ϵ-differential privacy
