Public Organizations and the role of data

Public organizations are integral components of societies worldwide and operate at various levels to offer essential services and activities for the “public good”. These entities play a crucial role in public welfare by providing education, healthcare, infrastructure, and more. Data serves as the lifeblood of these organizations, enabling informed decision-making, efficient resource allocation, and the development of effective policies. However, as data usage expands, ensuring individual privacy becomes vital. Public organizations must employ data protection to mitigate privacy risks while leveraging the power of data to serve the collective good. On top of that, public organizations serve as role models in the way of working with privacy-sensitive data.

Case studies

Why do Public Organizations consider synthetic data?

  • Privacy Protection: Public organizations often manage and process privacy sensitive personal information. Synthetic data allows them to create realistic but artificial datasets that mimic the characteristics of real data, without exposing individuals’ private information. This helps protect the privacy of citizens and ensures compliance with data protection regulations.
  • Serve as “role model”: Public organizations have a responsibility to demonstrate best practices in handling sensitive data and set up new standards. By adopting synthetic data as an additional practice, these organizations demonstrate commitment to privacy, while still leveraging the power of data.
  • Data Sharing and Collaboration: Public organizations frequently collaborate with other government agencies, research institutions, and private organizations. Sharing real data can be challenging due to privacy concerns and legal restrictions. Synthetic data provides a safe and compliant solution, enabling collaboration without risking data exposure.
  • Cost-Efficient Smart Analytics: Public organizations often operate within constrained budgets funded by taxpayers. Implementing synthetic data for smart analytics can significantly reduce costs associated with data collection, storage, and maintenance.
