The rapid development of the Global Positioning System (GPS) devices and location-based services (LBSs) facilitates the collection of huge amounts of personal information for the untrusted/unknown LBS providers. This phenomenon raises serious privacy concerns. However, most of the existing solutions aim at locating interference in the static scenes or in a single timestamp without considering the correlation between location transfer and time of moving users. In this way, the solutions are vulnerable to various inference attacks. Traditional privacy protection methods rely on trusted third-party service providers, but in reality, we are not sure whether the third party is trustable. In this paper, we propose a systematic solution to preserve location information. The protection provides a rigorous privacy guarantee without the assumption of the credibility of the third parties. The user's historical trajectory information is used as the basis of the hidden Markov model prediction, and the user's possible prospective location is used as the model output result to protect the user's trajectory privacy. To formalize the privacy-protecting guarantee, we propose a new definition, L&A-location region, based on k-anonymity and differential privacy. Based on the proposed privacy definition, we design a novel mechanism to provide a privacy protection guarantee for the users' identity trajectory. We simulate the proposed mechanism based on a dataset collected in real practice. The result of the simulation shows that the proposed algorithm can provide privacy protection to a high standard. |
