Book Description

This open access book is a robust yet accessible introduction to the idea, history, and key applications of Differential Privacy (DP) - the gold standard of algorithmic privacy protection. DP protects confidential data by introducing carefully calibrated random numbers, called statistical noise, when the data is used.

• Simson L. Garfinkel researches and writes at the intersection of AI, privacy, and digital forensics. He is a fellow of the AAAS, the ACM, and the IEEE.
