Google is releasing a new open-source cryptographic tool aimed at boosting privacy around sensitive data sets. The tool, called Private Join and Compute, is designed to help companies who are working together with confidential data sets. The tool allows companies to share data in overlapping databases, which will stay encrypted during various calculations. The technology s aim is to keep data secure while enabling organizations to accurately compute and draw insights from aggregated statistics, said Google.
