As more and more technologies to store and analyze massive amount of data become available, it is extremely important to make privacy-sensitive data de-identified so that further analysis can be conducted by different parties. For example, data needs to go through data de-identification process before being transferred to institutes for further value added analysis. As such, privacy protection issues associated with the release of data and data mining have become a popular field of study in the domain of big data. As a strict and verifiable definition of privacy, differential privacy has attracted noteworthy attention and widespread research in recent years. Nevertheless, differential privacy is not practical for most applications due to its performance of synthetic dataset generation for data query. Moreover, the definition of data protection by randomized noise in native differential privacy is abstract to users. Therefore, we design a pragmatic DP-based data de-identification protection and risk of data disclosure estimation system, in which a DP-based noise addition mechanism is applied to generate synthetic datasets. Furthermore, the risk of data disclosure to these synthetic datasets can be evaluated before releasing to buyers/consumers.
Nowadays, Vehicular ad hoc Network as a special class of Mobile ad hoc Network(MANET), provides plenty of services. However, it also brings the privacy protection issues, and there are conflicts between the privacy protection and the services. In this paper, we will propose a privacy protection algorithm based on group signature including two parts, group signature based anonymous verification and batch verification. The anonymous verification is based on the network model we proposed, which can reduce the trust authority burden by dividing the roadside units into different levels, and the batch verification can reduce the time of message verification in one group. We also prove our algorithm can satisfy the demand of privacy protection. Finally, the simulation shows that the algorithm we proposed is better than the BBS on the length of the signature, time delay and packet loss rate.
