Big but personal data
How our behavior makes
us unique

Is the way you move
as unique as
your fingerprint
We can use points to
identify a fingerprint

How many points do I need
to uniquely identify a
mobility traces?
De-identification
Entire country of 1.5 millions people
Our behavior is unique enough

Unicity: quantifying the privacy-utility
trade-off
Simple anonymization does not work even when
the data is coarse
1. Informed anonymization
2. Online system
Informed anonymization: D4D
Challenge
e.g. 2-week mobility traces
of 27 x 300.000 individuals
+ Bandicoot indicators

Online systems: from privacy to
security using openPDS
- Only shares
answers, not raw
data
- Individual
quantification of
the risks
