Claim 2:
3. The method of claim 2, wherein selecting the upper bound number and the lower bound number comprises:
generating a set of hashed value buckets for each prime number between a first upper bound number and a first lower bound number;
calculating, for each historical sensitive data item in the historical set of sensitive data items and each respective prime number between the first upper bound number and the first lower bound number, a respective modulo value based on a hashed version of the historical sensitive data item;
assigning a hashed sensitive data item to a hashed value bucket in the set of hashed value buckets;
determining that a threshold number of hashed value buckets in the set of hashed value buckets have fewer than a minimum number of hashed historical sensitive data items or more than a maximum number of hashed sensitive data items; and
selecting a second upper bound number as the upper bound number and a second lower bound number as the lower bound number based on the determining that the threshold number of hashed value buckets in the set of hashed value buckets have fewer than the minimum number of hashed sensitive data items or more than the maximum number of hashed sensitive data items.
