A new framework called VeriX-Anon has been developed to ensure data owners can verify that outsourced data anonymization processes are executed correctly. This multi-layered system combines deterministic, probabilistic, and utility-based verification methods, including Merkle-style hashing, boundary sentinels, and Explainable AI fingerprinting. In tests across various datasets and cloud scenarios, VeriX-Anon successfully detected deviations from contracted algorithms with high accuracy and no false alarms, while also preserving significantly more data utility compared to standard methods. AI
