Abstract

The recent techniques built on cloud computing for data processing is scalable and secure, which increasingly attracts the infrastructure to support big data applications. This paper proposes an effective anonymization based privacy preservation model using k-anonymization criteria and Grey wolf-Cat Swarm Optimization (GWCSO) for attaining privacy preservation in big data. The anonymization technique is processed by adapting k- anonymization criteria for duplicating k records from the original database. The proposed GWCSO is developed by integrating Grey Wolf Optimizer (GWO) and Cat Swarm Optimization (CSO) for constructing the k-anonymized database, which reveals only the essential details to the end users by hiding the confidential information. The experimental results of the proposed technique are compared with various existing techniques based on the performance metrics, such as Classification accuracy (CA) and Information loss (IL). The experimental results show that the proposed technique attains an improved CA value of 0.005 and IL value of 0.798, respectively.
