Abstract
An approach is provided for providing end-to-end privacy in multi-level distributed computations. A distributed computation privacy platform determines one or more privacy policies associated with at least one level of a computational environment. The distributed computation privacy platform also determines one or more computation closures associated with the at least one level of the computational environment. The distributed computation privacy platform further processes and/or facilitates a processing of the one or more privacy policies and the one or more computation closures to cause, at least in part, an enforcement of the one or more privacy policies.
