The research team says it wants to use machine learning models to design hash functions for other types of data and plans to explore learned hashing for databases in which data can be inserted or ...

Bloom filters are an essential class of probabilistic data structures designed for rapid set membership testing while minimising memory usage. By utilising multiple hash functions, these ...

Not only will hashing data not anonymize it, but regulators, including the FTC, consider hashed identifiers to be personal information.

In a recent blog post, the FTC again cautioned entities that hashing data does not make that data anonymous. Hashing is a process that takes a particular input, such as a phone number or email ...

Description The design, implementation, and analysis of abstract data types, data structures and their algorithms. Topics include: data and procedural abstraction, amortized data structures, trees and ...

Whether personal information that has undergone salting and hashing is still considered “personal information” depends upon the particular law or regulation at issue.
