SRI gets DARPA data privacy contract
SRI International has received an $8.5 million DARPA contract to investigate how privacy-preserving technologies can be applied to allow information sharing while protecting sensitive data across large-scale enterprises.
The contract, which was awarded through the Space and Naval Warfare Systems Command (SPAWAR), falls under DARPA's Brandeis programme.
SRI will work towards integrating technologies to enable sharing and controlling of sensitive data within large organisations. This will include work to help define information sharing-policy specification requirements; motivate technology development; and provide a platform to experiment with, deploy and evaluate the effectiveness of these technologies.
The technologies within the effort will include multi-party secure computation, differential privacy and modern encryption techniques.
Karen Myers, program director and principal scientist, artificial intelligence center, SRI International, said: ‘Historically there has been little in the way of privacy safeguards for enterprises wishing to collaborate through extensive data sharing. Our goal for this project is to uncover or develop novel privacy-preserving technologies that strike a balance between unfettered information sharing and maintaining the privacy of information embedded in the data.’
