The Privacy Professional’s Guide to Data Clean Rooms

Data Clean Rooms (DCRs) have emerged as critical solutions to enable safe collaboration between various participants in a way that will preserve the privacy of individuals. DCRs aim to provide secure computing environments that are both isolated and can be used to generate insights based on data from multiple participants without revealing any sensitive data to any of the participants. In other words, the only output generated from the DCR are insights generated from the data, thus no private data is exposed.

In this guide, we will:

• Review the clean room landscape
• Understand advantages and disadvantages of DCRs
• Explore how DCRs may evolve
• Understand the privacy impact of DCRs in the context of Privacy Enhancing Technologies (PETs)
• Outline challenges with confidential computing in clean rooms
