Israel: Privacy Protection Authority issued guide to privacy-enhancing technologies (PETs)

On 23 February 2025, the Privacy Protection Authority opened a consultation on a Guide to Privacy-Enhancing Technologies (PETs), aiming to provide public bodies, companies, and businesses with insights into digital tools that protect personal information. The guide outlines how PETs can obfuscate personal data, reduce disclosure risks during processing, and enhance control over data access. It categorises technologies by their role in preparing, using, and controlling information throughout its lifecycle. It is targeted at Data Protection Officers, legal advisors, product managers, and project managers. The consultation period is currently open, but no specific closing date is provided.
