QUERY PROCESSING IN A SECURE DATA CLEAN ROOM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240303366 titled 'QUERY PROCESSING IN A SECURE DATA CLEAN ROOM

The abstract of the patent application describes a data clean room that allows for encryption-based data analysis across multiple accounts of different users. The clean room restricts which data can be used in the analysis and limits the output. The requesting user's data is encrypted using a key, and a provider user can generate a shareable database function that decrypts the data with the key to generate results without exposing each other's data.

Encryption-based data analysis across multiple accounts
Restriction of data used in analysis and output
Requesting user's data encrypted with a key
Provider user generates shareable database function for decryption
Results generated without exposing each other's data

Potential Applications: - Secure data analysis in a multi-user database environment - Privacy protection for sensitive data analysis - Compliance with data protection regulations

Problems Solved: - Ensuring data privacy in collaborative data analysis - Preventing unauthorized access to sensitive information - Facilitating secure sharing of encrypted data for analysis

Benefits: - Enhanced data security and privacy - Improved collaboration on data analysis projects - Compliance with data protection laws and regulations

Commercial Applications: Title: Secure Data Analysis Platform for Multi-User Environments This technology could be used in industries such as healthcare, finance, and research where secure data analysis across multiple users is essential. It could also be valuable for companies handling sensitive customer data.

Questions about the technology: 1. How does the data clean room ensure the privacy of each user's data during analysis? 2. What are the key advantages of using encryption-based data analysis in a multi-user database environment?

Original Abstract Submitted

embodiments of the present disclosure may provide a data clean room allowing encryption based data analysis across multiple accounts of different database users. the data clean room may also restrict which data may be used in the analysis and may restrict the output. a requesting user's data can be encrypted using a key and a provider user can generate a shareable database function that accepts the key to decrypt the data to generate the results data without exposing each others' data.
