Scalable privacy-preserving technologies for cross-border federated computation in Europe involving personal data

Summary

Building on research and innovation in the area of privacy-preserving computation, proposals should address scalability and reliability of privacy-preserving technologies in realistic problem areas and take integration with existing infrastructures and traditional security measures (e.g. access control).        

Detailed Call Description

Proposals should respond to users’ needs, e.g. for research and digital services in access and data management for citizens geared towards their own profiles (incl. dynamic personalised recommendations for improved cybersecurity) or in personalised medicine, taking into account the gender dimension where relevant.

They should further address the legacy variation in personal data types and data models across different organisations in the same business sector and/or across different potential application sectors.

A proposed solution  should be guided by the EU’s high standards concerning the right to privacy, protection of personal data, and the protection of fundamental rights in the digital age.

Wherever possible, solutions should be developed as open source software.
