Abstract: A method and system for anonymizing data to be transmitted to a destination computing device is disclosed. Anonymization strategy for data anonymization is provided. Data to be transmitted is received from a user computer. Selective anonymization of the data is performed, based on the anonymization strategy, using an anonymization module. The data is anonymized using the anonymization module, to derive an anonymized data, using a data encryption key. The anonymized data is transmitted to the destination computer over a network. In some embodiments, the data encryption key is encrypted and decrypted prior to anonymization.
