The Challenge
What is Hitachi Energy looking for?
In this challenge, we are looking for methods and industry best practices for data anonymization to allow data to be shared in a way that it is not identifiable.
Data anonymization can be used to share data between groups to perform data analysis while having the guarantee that data is not identifiable and cannot be traced to each group.
HITACHI ENERGY is looking for a Demonstrator of a methodology
that would allow Entities to share operational data anonymously.
Entity A should be able to visualize and compare the data of Entity A against the data of Entity B and Entity C, without being able to identify which data comes from Entity B or Entity C. The main focus of this challenge is how to anonymize data, so that it shall not be possible to identify any entity or any other source data. In this challenge, applicants will be provided with a set of data unrelated to the business involved, to test their anonymization, visualization and analysis hypothesis and develop a demonstrator.
If you think this challenge is spot-on for you, register in the form below, and we will send you a mail with additional information, a set of sample data, and a link to the full application form.
Please note:
- Deadline above applies to submission of the full application. We strongly recommend to Register in form below no later than Jan 14, for you to receive all material and have enough time to submit your application before deadline on Jan 21.
