Obfuscating Permutations

Definition

Obfuscating permutations are cryptographic techniques that rearrange data elements in a way that conceals their original order or relationships. This method is employed to enhance privacy by making it difficult for observers to link specific data points or track sequences of events. It adds a layer of randomness or reordering to sensitive information, hindering analysis even if the data itself is accessible. Such permutations are valuable in privacy-preserving protocols to break observable patterns.
