Towards a Principled Framework for Disclosure Avoidance
Towards a Principled Framework for Disclosure Avoidance
Description
Throughout our history we’ve strengthened our respondent confidentiality protections in the face of growing disclosure risks. For the 2020 Census, we used a disclosure avoidance system specifically designed to thwart the serious threats posed by increasingly sophisticated computing systems. In this webinar we’ll describe a framework of principles we have developed to evaluate the strengths and limitations of different applied disclosure avoidance systems for our statistical products. We’ll also describe how these principles relate to, and are different from, the decisions that must be made when applying any form of disclosure avoidance to a statistical product.
