The Advanced Confidentiality Engine as a Scalable Tool for the Pseudonymization of Biomedical Data in Translational Settings: Development and Usability Study
ACE is a modern and highly scalable implementation of a pseudonymization service tailored toward the specific requirements in biomedical research. It is available as open-source software. As the space of openly available pseudonymization services is limited, we believe that ACE is valuable to institutions establishing or improving their translational data infrastructure.
