Privacy

GEPETO (GEoPrivacy-Enhancing TOolkit) is an open source software for managing geolocated data (currently in development in cooperation with LAAS). GEPETO can be used to visualize, sanitize, perform inference attacks and measure the utility of a particular geolocated dataset. For each of these actions, a set of different techniques and algorithms can be applied. The global objective of GEPETO is to enable a user to design, tune, experiment and evaluate various sanitization algorithms and inference attacks as well as visualizing the following results and evaluating the resulting trade-off between privacy and utility. An engineer (Izabela Moise) is currently working on the development of a distributed version of GEPETO based on the MapReduce paradigm and the Hadoop framework, in order to make it able to deal with datasets composed of millions of mobility traces.
