Method and system for correlating data from multiple sources without compromising confidentiality requirements

摘要

A method and system is provided for correlating data. A data tuple includes a unique record ID and a record. At least one data tuple is sent from a data supplier to a data user. An entity correlator receives at least one pair of the record ID and an identifying ID from a data supplier. The data user forwards a record ID list to the entity correlator. The record ID list includes at least one record ID. The entity correlator generates an entity list and sends it to the data user. The entity list correlates each entity in the entity list with the at least one record ID.
