What does the term "Re-Identification" refer to in the context of data privacy?

Encrypting data with a public key
Identifying individuals from anonymized data
Collecting log data for analysis
Using the same key for encrypting and decrypting

The correct answer is: Identifying individuals from anonymized data

Re-identification refers to the process of identifying individuals from previously anonymized data. This is a critical concept in data privacy as it highlights the risk that even supposedly anonymous data can be linked back to specific individuals, potentially leading to privacy breaches. Option A, encrypting data with a public key, is not directly related to re-identification. Options C and D are also not directly linked to the concept of re-identification in the context of data privacy.
