What is the purpose of Obfuscation-based techniques?

  1. Ensure transparency in data processing

  2. Focus on making individuals' identity identifiable

  3. Disguise location and time information to prevent data linkage

  4. Encrypt personal information for secure storage

The correct answer is: Encrypt personal information for secure storage

Obfuscation-based techniques are used to encrypt personal information for secure storage. Option A is incorrect because obfuscation does the opposite of ensuring transparency by concealing or confusing information. Option B is incorrect because obfuscation aims to make data less identifiable. Option C is incorrect because obfuscation primarily focuses on disguising information rather than preventing data linkage. The purpose of obfuscation is to make it difficult for malicious actors to access sensitive information. Thus, option D is the correct answer.
