How to Protect Government Data with Privacy-Enhancing Technology
This guide introduces privacy-enhancing technologies (PETs) and provides practical guidance for government agencies on selecting and implementing them to securely use, share, and protect sensitive data.
This report explains how privacy-enhancing technologies (PETs)—such as differential privacy, secure multiparty computation, and synthetic data—can help government agencies share and analyze sensitive data while safeguarding individual privacy.
It outlines key PET categories, their strengths and trade-offs, and offers a decision-making framework for choosing the right tool based on risk, trust, and intended use. The report also includes real-world examples and recommendations to support responsible, privacy-preserving innovation in the public sector.
