Privacy Risk Analysis to Enable Informed Privacy Settings

Participants : Daniel Le Métayer, Sourya joyee de.

We have proposed in [16] a method to enable better informed choices of privacy preferences or privacy settings by individuals. The method relies on a privacy risk analysis framework parameterized with privacy settings. The user can express his choices, visualize their impact on the privacy risks through a user-friendly interface, and decide to revise them as necessary to reduce risks to an acceptable level.
