In order to prevent others from identifying an individual within a data set, privacy engineers use a cryptographically-secure hashing algorithm. Use of hashes in this way illustrates the privacy tactic known as what?
B. Obfuscation.
Using a cryptographically-secure hashing algorithm to prevent others from identifying an individual in a dataset is a form of obfuscation, which involves disguising or masking data to protect privacy.
Obfuscation obstructs the ability to read or understand personal information. This is most commonly done with encryption or hashing but could also be done simply by using a code or little-known language.
