De-identification of Textual Data Using Immune System for Privacy Preserving in Big Data

De-identification of Textual Data Using Immune System for Privacy Preserving in Big Data With the growing observed success of big data use, many challenges appeared. Timeless, scalability and privacy are the main problems that researchers attempt to figure out. Privacy preserving is now a highly active domain of research, many works and concepts had seen the light within this theme. One of these concepts is the de-identification techniques. De-identification is a specific area that consists of finding and removing sensitive information either by replacing it, encrypting it or adding a noise to it using several techniques such as cryptography and data mining. In this report, we present a new model of de-identification of textual data using a specific Immune System algorithm known as CLONALG.
