Technology’s influence on privacy has become a matter of
everyday concern for millions of people, from software
architects designing new products to political leaders and
consumer groups. This book explores the issue from the
perspective of technology itself: how privacy-protective
features can become a core part of product functionality,
rather than added on late in the development process.

The Architecture of Privacy will not only help empower
software engineers, but also show policymakers, academics, and
advocates that, through an arsenal of technical tools,
engineers can form the building blocks of nuanced policies that
maximize privacy protection and utility—a menu of what to
demand in new technology.
