1. A method for privacy preserving data processing in a linked data operating environment wherein applications have secure and permissioned access in an interoperable manner to data that is stored in one or more online data stores, comprising:
instantiating a secure privacy preserving data processing (PPDP) environment in association with the one or more online data stores;
executing a PPDP agent within the secure PPDP environment over a configured security context and life-cycle of the PPDP agent, the PPDP agent configured for use by an entity to process the data in association with the one or more online data stores; and
responsive to closing of the PPDP agent's life-cycle, or upon a given event, terminating the PPDP agent and closing the PPDP environment.
