1 A Q&A with the Commissioner: Big Data and Privacy Health Research: Big Data, Health Research Yes! Personal Data No! Ann Cavoukian, Ph.D. Information and Privacy Commissioner Ontario, Canada
2 THE AGE OF BIG DATA, OPEN DATA AND PRIVACY Big Data Yes Open Data Yes Personal Data - No
3 BIG DATA Each day we create 2.5 quintillion bytes of data 90% of the data today has been created in the past 2 years; Big data analysis and data analytics promises new opportunities to gain valuable insights and benefits, (e.g., improved load management, better assets management, new programs and services etc.); However, it can also enable expanded surveillance, on a scale previously unimaginable; This situation cries out for a positive-sum solution, win-win strategy: what is needed is Big Data and Big Privacy!
4 PRIVACY BY DESIGN IN THE AGE OF BIG DATA The Big Difference with Big Data; Sensemaking Systems; Privacy by Design in the Age of Big Data; The Creation of a Big Data Sensemaking System through PbD.
5 DATA MINIMIZATION AND DE-IDENTIFICATION
6 DATA MINIMIZATION Data minimization is the most important safeguard in protecting personal health information, including for health research and data analysis; Ontario s PHIPA prohibits health care providers from collecting, using or disclosing personal health information if other information (such as de-identified or anonymized information) will serve the purpose; It also prohibits health care providers from collecting, using or disclosing more personal health information than is reasonably necessary to meet the purpose.
7 DISPELLING THE MYTHS ABOUT DE-IDENTIFICATION The claim that de-identification has no value in protecting privacy due to the ease of re-identification, is a myth; If proper de-identification techniques and re-identification risk management procedures are used, re-identification becomes a very difficult task; While there may be a residual risk of re-identification, in the vast majority of cases, de-identification will strongly protect the privacy of individuals when additional safeguards are in place.
8 DATA DE-IDENTIFICATION TOOL Developed by Dr. Khaled El Emam, Canada Research Chair in Electronic Health Information; De-identification tool that minimizes the risk of re-identification based on: - The low probability of reidentification; - Whether mitigation controls are in place; - Motives and capacity of the recipient; - The extent a breach invades privacy; Simultaneously maximizes privacy and data quality while minimizing distortion to the original database.
9 EVIDENCE THE TOOL WORKS Dr. El Emam was approached to create a longitudinal public use dataset using his de-identification tool for the purposes of a global data mining competition the Heritage Health Prize; Participants in the Heritage Health Prize competition were asked to predict, using de-identified claims data, the number of days patients would be hospitalized in a subsequent year; Before releasing the dataset created using Dr. El Emam s tool, the de-identified dataset was subjected to a strong reidentification attack by a highly skilled expert; The expert concluded the dataset could not be re-identified Dr. El Emam's de-identification tool was highly successful!
10 EVIDENCE THAT RE-IDENTIFICATION IS EXTREMELY DIFFICULT A literature search by Dr. El Emam et al. identified 14 published accounts of re-identification attacks on deidentified data; A review of these attacks revealed that one quarter of all records and roughly one-third of health records were re-identified; However, Dr. El Emam found that only 2 out of the 14 attacks were made on records that had been properly de-identified using existing standards; Further, only 1 of the 2 attacks had been made on health data, resulting in a very low re-identification rate of 0.013%.
11 DATA MINIMIZATION FOR RECORD LINKAGES Dr. El Emam has also developed a protocol for securely linking databases without sharing any identifying information; The protocol uses an encryption system to identify and locate records relating to an individual, existing in multiple datasets; This involves encrypting personal identifiers in each dataset and comparing only the encrypted identifiers, using mathematical operations, resulting in a list of matched records, without revealing any personal identifiers; The protocol promotes compliance with existing prohibition in PHIPA by allowing linkages of datasets without the disclosure of any identifying information a win/win solution positive-sum!
12 HOMOMORPHIC ENCRYPTION A form of encryption that allows computations to be carried out on encrypted data to obtain an encrypted result; Homomorphic describes the transformation of one dataset into another while preserving relationships between data elements in both sets; Homomorphic encryption allows you to make computations or engage in data analytics on encrypted values data you cannot read because it is not in plain text, therefore inaccessible; May also be used to link two or more databases without the disclosure of any unique identifiers positive-sum win/win.
13 SECURE DATA ANALYTICS ON THE CLOUD The Value of De-identification; Challenges in Re-identifying De-identified Information; De-identification in the Context of Privacy Laws; Re-identification Risk Assessment.
14 CONCLUDING THOUGHTS Make privacy a priority ensure that privacy is embedded into your systems and operational processes into your business practices; It is easier and far more cost-effective to build in privacy up-front, rather than after-the-fact; Privacy risks are best managed by proactively embedding the principles of Privacy by Design; Get smart lead with Privacy by Design, not privacy by chance or, worse, Privacy by Disaster!
