DB Sanitizer

During our empirical classroom studies large amounts of data have been captured and stored in databases. This data contains private information about study participants (e.g. student names). Thus this data can not be published for further analysis by participated research groups in its raw form.

The DB Sanitizer filters private data in postgreSQL databases based on a user defined privacy policy. The tool has been successfully applied on our data to create a sanitized version of our database for external analysts.
