Abstract:
Privacy concerns in digital ecosystems have escalated significantly with the proliferation of data collection practices. This research introduces SecureVeil, a novel privacy-enhancing technology (PET) designed to preserve user autonomy while maintaining functional digital interactions. Through a combination of differential privacy mechanisms, homomorphic encryption, and a decentralized consent management system, SecureVeil creates a protective layer that shields sensitive user data from unauthorized access while enabling legitimate data processing. Our experimental evaluation demonstrates that SecureVeil reduces privacy vulnerability scores by 68% compared to conventional protection mechanisms while maintaining system usability with only a 12% performance overhead. The technology's efficacy was validated across multiple digital platforms, including e-commerce, healthcare, and social media environments. This paper details SecureVeil's architecture, implementation challenges, performance metrics, and potential implications for privacy-focused system design. Results indicate that SecureVeil represents a significant advancement in balancing privacy protection with practical functionality in contemporary digital ecosystems.
