Sažetak
Privacy, described as "an integral part of our humanity" and "the beginning of all freedom", is one of the most important social and political issues in our information society. It is characterised by a growing range of enabling and supporting technologies and services such as communications, telemedicine, multimedia, biometrics, big data, the internet, social networks, and video surveillance. Each of these can potentially lead to privacy intrusion. De-identification, which is defined as the process of removing or concealing personal identifiers or replacing them with surrogate personal identifiers to prevent direct or indirect identification of a person, is recognised as an efficient tool to protect a person's privacy. The contributions for this Special Section are mainly the result of research activities and cooperation associated with COST Action IC1206 “De-identification for Privacy Protection in Multimedia Content”.
