Claim 17:
18. A method for handling personally identifiable information (PH) in data streams, comprising:
receiving processed sensor data from a plurality of vehicles including sensors capturing raw sensor data, the raw sensor data including captured PII and non-PII, the processed sensor data including (i) a base layer having the non-PII and simulated PII created based on the captured PII, (ii) one or more encrypted additional layers of the captured PII corresponding to the simulated PII, (iii) base metadata descriptive of the non-PII and the simulated PII, and (iv) encrypted PII metadata descriptive of the captured PII, the simulated PII being generated by identifying the captured PII in the raw sensor data, identifying data attributes of the captured PH, generating the simulated PII for the captured PII based on the data attributes using a generative adversarial network, and constructing the processed sensor data including the simulated PII in the base layer replacing the captured PII with the captured PII included in the one or more encrypted additional layers;
receiving a request from a client device for a portion of the processed sensor data;
identifying access keys corresponding to the request;
constructing a result according to the access keys using the processed sensor data; and
sending the constructed result to the client device responsive to the request.
