Abstract: Methods and systems for monitoring a risk of re-identification for a dataset de-identified from a source database containing information identifiable to individuals are described. A first aspect of the disclosure relates to a method comprising: providing a graphical user interface (GUI) configured to receive as input the dataset and updates to said dataset; providing as input to the GUI the dataset; estimating a risk of re-identification for the dataset or a subset of the database; providing as input to the GUI the updates to said dataset; regularly monitoring whether the risk of re-identification for at least one of the updated dataset, the subset of the database and the updates is below a predetermined dataset risk threshold; and if the risk of re-identification has reached or exceeded the predetermined dataset risk threshold, notifying the user.
