  FLAIM (Framework for Log Anonymization and Information Management) addresses
two important needs not well addressed by current log anonymizers. First, it is
extremely modular and not tied to the specific log being anonymized. Second, it
supports multi-level anonymization, allowing system administrators to make
fine-grained trade-offs between information loss and privacy/security concerns.
In this paper, we examine anonymization solutions to date and note the above
limitations in each. We further describe how FLAIM addresses these problems,
and we describe FLAIM's architecture and features in detail.
