Abstract
A computer-implemented method of preparing an anonymised dataset for use in data analytics. The method includes the steps of: (a) labelling elements of a dataset to be analysed according to a labelling scheme; (b) selecting one or more labelled elements of the dataset to be replaced with a distance preserving hash; and for each selected element: (c) partitioning a data plane including the selected element into a plurality of channels, each channel covering a different distance space of the data plane; (d) hashing, using a cryptographic hash, data associated with the channel of the data plane in which the selected element resides, to form the distance preserving hash; and (e) replacing the selected element with the distance preserving hash.
