• Abstract: Government agencies collect and manage a wide range of ever-growing datasets. While such data has the potential to support research and evidence-based policy making, there are concerns that the dissemination of such data could infringe upon the privacy of the individuals (or organizations) from whom such data was collected. To appraise the current state of data sharing, as well as learn about opportunities for stimulating such sharing at a faster pace, a virtual workshop was held on May 21st and 26th, 2021, sponsored by the National Science Foundation and National Institute of Standards and Technologies, where a multinational collection of researchers and practitioners were brought together to discuss their experiences and learn about recently developed technologies for managing privacy while sharing data. The workshop specifically focused on challenges and successes in government data sharing at various levels. The first day focused on successful examples of new technology applied to sharing of public data, including formal privacy techniques, synthetic data, and cryptographic approaches. Day two emphasized brainstorming sessions on some of the challenges and directions to address them.

  Security measures such as anonymization are needed to protect individuals' privacy. Within our study, we conducted expert interviews to gain insights into practices in the field. We survey privacy-enhancing methods in use, which generally do not comply with state-of-the-art standards of differential privacy.

  Data with privacy concerns comes with stringent regulations that frequently prohibited data access and data sharing. Overcoming these obstacles is key for technological progress in many real-world application scenarios that involve privacy sensitive data. Differentially private (DP) data publishing provides a compelling solution, where only a sanitized form of the data is publicly released.

  A prominent proposal at W3C only allows sharing advertising signals through aggregated, differentially private reports of past displays. To study this proposal extensively, an open Privacy-Preserving Machine Learning Challenge took place at AdKDD'21. A key finding is that learning models on large, aggregated data in the presence of a small set of unaggregated data points can be surprisingly efficient and cheap.

• Privacy and Data Balkanization: Circumventing the Barriers [0.0]
  Privacy concerns and laws are leading to significant overhead in arranging for sharing or combining different data sets. For new applications, where the benefit of combined data is not yet clear, this overhead can inhibit organizations from even trying to determine whether they can mutually benefit from sharing their data. We discuss techniques to overcome this difficulty by employing private information transfer to determine whether there is a benefit from sharing data, and whether there is room to negotiate acceptable prices.
