Abstract

See full text

A method, system and computer program product for privacy control. A unique identifier for each data element of a group of data elements (e.g., driver's license contains a group of data elements, such as name, driver's license number) is created. These identifiers may be stored along with documentation (e.g., label) of the associated data elements in a manifest file. Alternatively, the identifiers may be stored in a file outside of the manifest file. In this manner, by utilizing a data element identifier which corresponds to a random number, security of privacy information is improved as one would only be able to obtain such sensitive information by obtaining such an identifier. Furthermore, the user only needs to send the requested data elements, as opposed to all the data elements of the group of data elements, to the challenger. In this manner, the user is preserving the security of other privacy information.
