An efficient approach for privacy preserving in data mining

Abstract

In many organizations large amount of data are collected. These data are sometimes used by the organizations for data mining tasks. However, the data collected may contain private or sensitive information which should be protected. Privacy protection is an important issue if we release data for the mining or sharing purpose. Privacy preserving data mining techniques allow publishing data for the mining purpose while at the same time preserve the private information of the individuals. Many techniques have been proposed for privacy preservation but they suffer from various types of attacks and information loss. In this paper we proposed an efficient approach for privacy preservation in data mining. Our technique protects the sensitive data with less information loss which increase data usability and also prevent the sensitive data for various types of attack. Data can also be reconstructed using our proposed technique.
