Recent research has indicated the failure of existing sanitization techniques (e.g., k-anonymity) to provide rigorous privacy guarantees. Privacy- preserving multidimensional data publishing currently lacks a solid theoretical foundation. It is urgent to develop new techniques with provable privacy guarantees, e-Differential privacy is the only method that can provide such guarantees. In this paper, we propose a multidimensional data publishing scheme that ensures c-differential privacy while providing accurate results for query processing. The proposed solution applies nonstandard wavelet transforms on the raw multidimensional data and adds noise to guarantee c-differential privacy. Then, the scheme processes arbitrarily queries directly in the noisy wavelet- coefficient synopses of relational tables and expands the noisy wavelet coefficients back into noisy relational tuples until the end result of the query. Moreover, experimental results demonstrate the high accuracy and effectiveness of our approach.展开更多
