This page gathers the results of the project conducted by Eurostat and Cybernetica in 2020-2021 (project reference number ESTAT.2019.0232).
The main goal was to explore the feasibility of a Secure Private Computing solution for the privacy-preserving processing of pseudonymised Mobile Network Operator (MNO) data. The technology of choice for this project was based on Trusted Execution Environment (TEE) technology with hardware isolation (Intel SGX).
For a general overview of the motivations and goals of the project refer to this paper presented at UNECE Expert Meeting on Statistical Data Confidentiality in 2021 UNECE2021_paper_eurostat_cybernetica (paper, slides)
The specification of test use-cases is available in this technical note by Eurostat ESTAT 2019.0232 Technical Note - Specification of test use-cases.pdf
