Design of a Data Anonymization Tool to Enhance Sharing on an Open Data Platform

Unintentional disclosure of sensitive data is a critical challenge for many organizations and a serious barrier for open data platforms. Within this research in progress paper, we propose a data anonymization tool to tackle this challenge. The goal of this paper is to elicit design requirements to increase the willingness to share data and collaborate with others on an open data platform. For this purpose, a demonstrator for a data anonymization tool was evaluated within a workshop setting with representatives from companies, science, and public authorities. We found that the willingness to share data can be increased by implementing an anonymization tool and identified further requirements to improve design and to reach the participants' involvement.
