All companies are "by default" afraid of disclosing any data, of any kind and in any form - that's normal. However, in 95% of cases these concerns are unjustified and even quick investigation of possible threats shows their irrelevance.
Moreover, every threat must be assessed in the context of potential benefits - cost savings, financial gains, higher satisfaction of customers etc. - resulting from top-grade algorithms or predictive models designed by Planprofor©. These benefits are very large and greatly outweigh any possible threats.
For the App, it is necessary to disclose at least a small part of the data, as our App analyses, learns, simulates, predicts and builds models on-the-fly for the design of effective algorithms. However, note that: Schedule datasets are never the raw data collected by the company, but a heavily pre-processed version of it. In most cases, all sensitive information can be stripped out. For example, if the algorithm predicts schedule completion based on a duration value of a project, it doesn't need to know who the clients are or the brainpower within the schedule in question.
In case of transactional or time series data, you don't have to disclose latest records. Frequently it's enough to show data from the past, which are already known or have no or very negligible business value. Only when deploying the winning algorithm, you will provide full most recent dataset and retrain the model.
The meaning of attributes can in many cases be kept confidential, without impeding the design of algorithms.
Values of attributes - be it numeric or symbolic - can be distorted in simple ways, like scaling, that don't influence quality of algorithms, but remove sensitive components of the information.
The part of data that needs to be disclosed can be a small fraction of the whole dataset, so it's usually possible to inspect it manually and check if nothing sensitive is revealed.
Planprofor© takes security very seriously. Planprofor© uses secure socket layer (SSL) to transmit data to and from the cloud. Our partnerships with the best-in-industry cloud infrastructure companies ensure world class solutions. Your data is never shared and is only available to you.
