Privacy-enhanced secure framework for educational data protection and analysis
摘要
The need for real-time processing of educational data versus the sensitivity of student data makes the balancing between privacy and accessibility a vital challenge in data analysis. We present the PSEDA model (Privacy-Secure Educational Data Analysis) that integrates homomorphic encryption, differential privacy and role-based access control for strong privacy protection while permitting analysis. The primary breakthrough of the model is its ability to process large volumes of information without incurring huge costs due to encryption and decryption. We consistently outperform the state-of-the-art over the tasks within PSEDA. It obtains the highest accuracy of 96.7% at 30 features, but also provides the lowest time cost for encryption 1009 ms and decryption 704 ms at 5 features. Furthermore, it achieves an impressive 90.8% for access restriction and shows a very high throughput of 90.4% at 5 features. Based on assessment on the EdNet dataset, these findings demonstrate that the PSEDA model can securely and efficiently operate on large-scale educational data, reflecting a significant step forward in privacy-preserving data analysis.
