Frequently Asked Questions

Privacy-preserving AI refers to technologies, methods, and governance practices that help protect sensitive or personal data while AI systems are developed, trained, deployed, and monitored.

AI systems increasingly process personal, confidential, and sensitive information. Privacy-preserving approaches can help organizations reduce privacy risks while maintaining useful data and AI capabilities.

Privacy-enhancing technologies, or PETs, are technical approaches designed to reduce privacy risks while allowing data to be processed or used for legitimate purposes. Examples include differential privacy, federated learning, secure multi-party computation, homomorphic encryption, and confidential computing.

Differential privacy is a mathematical approach to limiting what can be learned about an individual from the output of a data analysis or AI system. It introduces controlled randomness to provide privacy protection while retaining useful analytical information.

Epsilon is a parameter used to describe the privacy guarantee in differential privacy. The course introduces the mathematical foundations of differential privacy and examines the trade-offs associated with epsilon.

Federated learning is an approach in which machine learning models can be trained across decentralized data sources without requiring all underlying training data to be centrally collected.

Federated learning can reduce the need to centralize certain training data. However, federated learning does not automatically eliminate privacy or security risks, so additional safeguards and governance may still be necessary.

Secure multi-party computation is a cryptographic approach that enables multiple parties to jointly compute information without directly revealing their underlying private inputs to one another.

Privacy engineering involves incorporating privacy considerations and controls into the design, development, deployment, and operation of systems that process personal or sensitive information.

Privacy-aware MLOps incorporates privacy considerations into machine learning operations, including data pipelines, model training, deployment, monitoring, and lifecycle management.

Privacy-preserving AI knowledge can support professional development in AI governance, data privacy and protection, privacy engineering, information security, AI risk management, data governance, MLOps, and compliance or regulatory management.

Learners who want to expand into broader AI governance can explore AI Governance Fundamentals, Responsible AI: AI Ethics, Governance & Compliance, or AI Risk Management with NIST and ISO 42001.

For a stronger focus on AI risk frameworks and implementation, NIST AI Risk Management Framework In Practice is also a relevant next step.
