National Privacy Research Strategy National Science and Technology Council

The National Privacy Research Strategy establishes objectives for Federally-funded privacy research (both extramural and government-internal research), provides a structure for coordinating research and development in privacy-enhancing technologies, and encourages multi-disciplinary research that recognizes the responsibilities of the government and the needs of society. The overarching goal of this strategy is to produce knowledge and technology that will enable individuals, commercial entities, and the government to benefit from transformative technological advancements, enhance opportunities for innovation, and provide meaningful protections for personal information and individual privacy.
