Unlock the power of your data
Taking the right approach to data anonymization is critical to earn trust, avoid a privacy violation and ensure the utility of your data isn’t lost. It empowers you to use your data with confidence—to innovate, to grow your business and to improve the services that you deliver.

Other methods undermine your data’s value
Many anonymization service providers “mask” data or apply simple rules that ignore the context in which data will be used or shared. This can easily reduce the utility of the data, potentially limiting innovation and new sources of revenue.
Watch this short video to learn more about the critical differences between data masking, de-identification and anonymization.
A risk-based approach delivers the best results
With risk-based anonymization, commercial and societal value can be unlocked from even the most sensitive personal data without compromising individual privacy or regulatory compliance.
Privacy Analytics has been setting the global standard for risk-based anonymization of personal information since 2007. Our methodology is recognized and aligned with global standards and best practices from around the world.

How we achieve the outcome you need
Our structured approach to evaluate identifiability depends on the intended use-case for the data.
We consider:
Who will use your data
The physical and digital environment in which they have access
The potential for any kind of data breach
These assessments enable us to arrive at an overall measure of identifiability. Our measures of identifiability are used to inform you on what must be done from a technical, operational and strategic level to maintain the utility of your data while maintaining privacy.
We can then apply our proven processes and proprietary algorithms to de-identify your data to an appropriate threshold based on established benchmarks.
