Definition: Identification risk
Category: Statistical methodologies
This risk is defined as the probability that an intruder identifies at least one respondent in the disseminated microdata. This identification may lead to the disclosure of (sensitive) information about the respondent. The risk of identification depends on the number and nature of quasi-identifiers in the microdata and in the a priori knowledge of the intruder. http://ec.europa.eu/eurostat/ramon/statmanuals/files/SDC_Handbook.pdf
