This study explores innovative Privacy-Preserving Data Mining (PPDM) methods for handling sensitive information, addressing the critical balance between data utility and privacy. We identify prevalent issues arising from traditional data mining techniques and evaluate advanced PPDM approaches like differential privacy, homomorphic encryption, and federated learning using real-world datasets. Through a comprehensive analysis, our results indicate that hybrid models, which combine multiple PPDM techniques, are particularly effective in enhancing privacy without compromising data utility. The findings underscore the need for adaptable and robust PPDM strategies in the era of Big Data, contributing valuable insights to both the academic and practical domains. Our research paves the path for future studies and developments in creating a harmonious ecosystem where data mining efficiency and privacy coexist, promoting an insightful yet private data-centric world.
