Your secrets are safe with us: Tooling for research with sensitive data

March 21, 2023 @ 12:00 am

Many areas of research deal with sensitive data that cannot be shared widely. They have to be protected due to privacy, intellectual property, or other reasons. In this event, we will discuss several projects, tools and techniques to work with sensitive data in research.

In the context of open science, research data are increasingly shared for reuse. When working with sensitive data, however, such sharing is often hampered due to privacy, intellectual property or other limitations due to the sensitive nature of the data. This limits the degree of reuse in research tremendously. More and more, however, solutions and strategies are being developed to circumvent these limitations.

The aim of this afternoon is to give an overview of current projects, tools and techniques to work safely with sensitive data. The afternoon will consist of short presentations and demos, with ample room for questions, and drinks afterwards.
