Anonymisation software

Among other things, the algorithm recognises and anonymises (personal) data and confidential (financial) data in documents before they are published, e.g. on the basis of the Open Government Act.

Goal and impact

The anonymisation software is used to give substance to transparency, on the one hand, and the necessary protection of the individuals and companies to whom the documents relate, on the other.

Considerations

The municipality faces various laws and regulations under which the municipality actively discloses information upon request. This information may contain privacy-sensitive information. In doing so, it is important that this information is anonymised. Manually anonymising data is a time-consuming task that also involves errors and data leaks. DataMask's software enables users to anonymise personal and confidential information themselves in an efficient manner.

Human intervention

The documents anonymised by means of the software can be checked by an employee afterwards. The employee determines whether the document has been correctly anonymised.

Risk management

Risk is minimal because DataMask does not make decisions. DataMask makes a proposal for anonymising data and information. The municipality employee always does the final check whether a document is correctly anonymised.
