The correct answer is **A. By ensuring that every record in a set is part of a group of “K” records having similar identifying information**. K-anonymity protects privacy by ensuring that each record in a dataset cannot be distinguished from at least "K-1" other records based on the identifying information. This means that each individual’s data is indistinguishable from the data of at least K-1 other individuals, reducing the risk of re-identification.
