Abstract - This abstract describes a novel approach to location privacy preservation algorithm that aims to protect users' sensitive location information from being exposed to unauthorized parties or malicious attacks. The proposed approach uses a combination of techniques, including spatial cloaking, k- anonymity, and differential privacy, to provide a multi-layered defense mechanism. Spatial cloaking involves grouping multiple users' location data within a particular area, while k- anonymity ensures that each location dataset is indistinguishable from at least k-1 other location datasets. Differential privacy involves adding random noise to the location data to protect the privacy of individual users. The proposed approach provides a robust defense mechanism that ensures the protection of user privacy while still allowing for the analysis of the overall location dataset. The effectiveness of the proposed approach is demonstrated through experimental evaluation, which shows that it provides a high level of privacy protection while maintaining the accuracy of location-based services.
