Abstract
A method and system for anonymizing data to be transmitted to a destination computing device is disclosed. Anonymization strategy for data anonymization is provided. Data to be transmitted is received from a user computer. Selective anonymization of the data is performed, based on the anonymization strategy, using an anonymization module. Accent preservation of data is selected. An accent value for the data is determined. The anonymized data with the determined accent value is transmitted to the destination computing device over a network. In one embodiment, the anonymized data has less number of characters than the input data.
