Privacy and Confidentiality in the Open Data Era

In the era of Open Data, how can organisations share and disseminate data both safely and securely?

Maybe you have an open data obligation to disseminate your data, or maybe you simply want to share sensitive information between departments internally, the chances are you’ve been restricted from releasing or sharing information because of privacy concerns.

What if there was a better way?

What if you could apply advanced confidentiality rules to your data on-the-fly, ensuring individual privacy is protected without affecting the usefulness or accuracy of your data. Come along to our breakfast forum to hear how our software helps organisations open up their data with confidence.

The Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) is Australia’s national statistical agency, responsible for providing key statistics on a range of economic, environmental and social issues as well as conducting the 5 yearly Australian Census. The ABS has been using Space-Time Research solutions for almost 30 years. Our software powers ABS TableBuilder, a self-help tool that provides access to census data online, allowing anyone to create tables, graphs, and thematic maps based on census data via an interactive and intuitive interface.

Duncan Young will deliver Australia’s Census of Population and Housing in 2016–the largest peacetime activity in Australia, and is passionate about his role in encouraging the use of Census data to encourage more informed decision making in Australia. As a former Australian Government Young ICT Professional of the Year, Duncan has driven a major transformation of the Census program to take a digital first approach, which will deliver a saving of over $100m.
