Description: "Statistical disclosure control is the discipline that deals with producing statistical data that are safe (enough) to be released to external researchers. This book concentrates on the methodology of the area. It deals with both microdata (individual data) and tabular (aggregated) data. The book attempts to develop the theory from what can be called the paradigm of statistical confidentiality to modify unsafe data in such a way that safe (enough) data emerge, with minimum information loss.

This book discusses what safe data are and how information loss can be measured."--BOOK JACKET.
