Abstract
Provided is an anonymization system for performing distributed, stateless, and persistent anonymization of with variable encoding. The anonymization system may receive a first file with at least a first data element. The first data element may include a tag and restricted data. The anonymization system may change a first encoding of the tag having a first size to a second encoding having a second size that is smaller than the first size. The anonymization system may replace the restricted data with different anonymized data based on a persistent mapping of the restricted data to the anonymized data, and may output the first data element with the second encoding of the tag and the anonymized data to a database or an anonymized second file.
