Zusammenfassung:The present invention is directed to a differential privacy platform in which the privacy risk of a computation can be objectively and quantitatively calculated. This measurement is performed by simulating a sophisticated privacy attack on the system for various measures of privacy cost or epsilon, and measuring the level of success of the attack. In certain embodiments, a linear program reconstruction-type attack is used. By calculating the loss of privacy resulting from sufficient attacks at a particular epsilon, the platform may calculate a level of risk for a particular use of data. The privacy budget for the use of the data may thereby be set and controlled by the platform to remain below a desired risk threshold.
