Privacy Computing Theory

Over the past 20 years, privacy preservation has received extensive attention. However, existing research has focused on scattered privacy-preserving methods for specific scenarios, and there is no systematic research on privacy preservation from the perspective of “computing”. To establish a computing framework for the preservation of privacy information throughout its life cycle, the authors of this book are the first to propose the concept and definition of privacy computing in 2015, formally described privacy computing, and analyzed its connotation and research scope. The formal definition has been proposed, the framework of privacy computing has been established, and the implementation details with initial results have been provided.
