Abstract
Controlled Tabular Adjustment (CTA) has been developed as SDC method for tabular data. It aims at finding the closest additive table to a given original table ensuring that adjusted values of all confidential cells are safely away from their original value. In practice, it is usually not possible to process an entire publication as a single CTA application. This paper looks into possibilities of designing a sequential application of CTA yielding a protected micro-data set while controlling for the quality of estimates that would be derived from the protected data.
