Various anonymization techniques, like suppression, generalization and bucketization are designed for preserving privacy of published data. Generalization loses significant amount of information especially for large volume of data and bucketization is not sufficient prevent membership disclosure and cannot be used for data where quasi-identifying attributes and sensitive attributes cannot be clearly separated. . Slicing is new privacy preserving technique which provides improved data utility than generalization and is more efficient in workload pertaining to the sensitive attribute
