A Formal Model of Data Privacy

Abstract: Abstract. Information systems support data privacy by constraining user's access to public views and thereby hiding the non-public underlying data. The privacy problem is to prove that none of the private data can be inferred from the information which is made public. We present a formal definition of the privacy problem which is based on the notion of certain answer. Then we investigate the privacy problem in the contexts of relational databases and ontology based information systems.

“…Fourth, while many approaches employ an abstract notion of a system in terms of abstract traces or states, in contrast (but similar to, e.g., [27,34,41,42,44]), we deal with the particularities of logic-oriented information systems, where the "state" of a client is represented by sets of sentences of a logic, as stored in the log files, where the logic provides precise semantics of logical implication to express how those states might be related. Given these and further differences, so far we see the recently proposed, highly expressive model for secrecy in multiagent systems [27] as the only promising candidate to cast our model in a more comprehensive one, thereby opening the way for more systematic comparisons.…”

“…Accordingly, our contribution is in line with many other works on "possibilistic secrecy", a notion which in our specific case refers to the possibility (existence) of alternative "safe" instances together with a generating alternative interaction sequence, as precisely described in Definition 3. This line has a long tradition, already treated in [20] regarding early contributions, substantially pushed by studying various notions of "noninterference", see, e.g., [25,33,37], and more recently revived in, e.g., [27,41,42,44]. Often such work was extended to "probabilistic secrecy", see, e.g., [22,26,27,30,[34][35][36]39].…”

“…Data privacy was studied for EL ontologies by Tao et al [21]. Bao et al introduced the notion of a privacy-preserving reasoner [22] and Stouppa et al proposed a framework for data privacy in the context of ALC ontologies [23]. Finally, Calvanese et al [24] proposed techniques for ontology access authorisation based on Zhang and Mendelzon's database authorisation views paradigm [15].…”

“…In this case, various access rights are provided to users, and the privacy preservation implies that the users can only retrieve the information they are allowed to access either directly or indirectly by way of logical inference. The privacy of data in the systems of information is a high area of research, which is active particularly in the case of the databases (DBs) (Stouppa & Studer, 2007). Existing works on the privacy of data in databases aim mainly at the complete relational DBs (Biskup & Bonatti, 2004;VitoRacanelli et al, 2006).…”
