Verification of privacy in a shared resource environment

Abstract:

Embodiments relate to a system, program product, and method for use with a computer platform to support privacy preservation. The platform measures and verifies data privacy provided by a shared resource service provider. An assessment is utilized to support the privacy preservation with respect to a data steward, and associated shared data. It is understood that data associated with a data service has an expected level of privacy. A privacy score directly correlating to a leakage indicator of the service is formed, and an associated data container is populated with inferred entities deemed to at least meet a preferred privacy level. The privacy score effectively certifies the security of the populated data container.
