Abstract
A method and system for anonymizing data to be transmitted to a destination computing device is disclosed. An anonymization strategy module is executed on a computing device to store anonymization strategy for data anonymization in a data store. A logic configured to receive data from a user computer, to be stored in the destination computing device. An anonymization module is executed on the computing device to selectively anonymize data to be stored in the destination computing device, based on the anonymization strategy for the data to be stored. Anonymized data is transmitted to the destination computing device for storage, over a network.
