Abstract: A privacy network and unified trust model runs privacy algorithms that can completely obfuscate any data or rendering the data opaque and meaningless so they can be freely aggregated and shared without risk of security or privacy breach. The obfuscated algorithms can be applied to obfuscated data to produce obfuscated output. The obfuscated output is identical to what would have been produced had the algorithms been applied to data and then obfuscated with the same privacy algorithm. Information from disparate sources is virtually aggregated, linked, analyzed, transformed and used without revealing any meaningful information to any person or any system—even to the processors performing the computation.
