  "term": "clipping parameter",
  "field": "Cybersecurity",
  "definition": "The specific choice of lower and upper bounds that are used when an algorithm performs clipping. The utility of a differentially private algorithm is often dependent on choosing good clipping parameters. One must be careful not to compute the clipping parameter directly from the data, as doing so may lead to a violation of privacy.",
