# ❓ What Is Protected Data?
77

8-
Protected Data is iExec's revolutionary approach to data privacy and ownership.
9-
It allows you to maintain control over your data while enabling computation on
10-
it without exposing the raw information.

## Key Concepts
13-
14-
### Data Ownership
15-
16-
- **You own your data**: The original data never leaves your control
17-
- **Granular permissions**: Decide who can access and use your data
18-
- **Revocable access**: Grant and revoke permissions at any time
13+
Protected Data refers to any data encrypted using the iExec Data Protector tool.
14+
This end-to-end encryption solution enables users to protect, manage and
15+
monetize their data within the Web3 ecosystem.

### Privacy-Preserving Computation

<div class="bg-gradient-to-r from-purple-400/10 to-purple-400/5 rounded-[6px] p-6 border-l-4 border-fuchsia-700 mb-6">
18+
<p class="m-0!">Unlike standard datasets, Protected Data exposes only its <span class="text-fuchsia-700 font-semibold">data types on-chain</span> (for example, indicating that it contains an email address or a photo). This allows anyone to <span class="text-fuchsia-700 font-semibold">identify entries with specific types</span>.</p>

- **Encrypted processing**: Data is encrypted during computation
23-
- **TEE (Trusted Execution Environment)**: Secure enclaves protect data during
24-
processing
25-
- **Zero-knowledge**: Compute on data without revealing it
