10.48550/arXiv.2605.11386A framework for grading the strength of privacy protection in brain-computer interfaces, addressing conceptual boundaries and risk pathways.
Abstract
Brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) are moving rapidly from laboratory research into clinical, edge, and real-world settings. Under ISO/IEC 8663:2025, a BCI is a direct communication link between central nervous system activity and external software or hardware systems. This link expands privacy risk beyond raw neural-signal leakage: neural data, derived representations, model assets, and decoded outputs can be re-associated with individuals across collection, transmission, storage, training, inference, and feedback, or used to infer information beyond what a task requires. Starting from the general BCI paradigm, this review deffnes privacy-protection boundaries, protection objects, and the relationship between user data privacy and model privacy within a shared risk pathway. It then proposes a three-dimensional framework - protection object, lifecycle stage, and dominant protection-strength level - to classify existing work into four levels of protection strength. Finally, mental privacy and neuroethical risks are treated as open issues, emphasizing that BCI privacy protection should not only obscure data but also disentangle task-irrelevant sensitive information while preserving downstream utility. Keywords: Brain-computer interface, Neural data privacy, User data privacy, Model privacy, Disentanglement of task-irrelevant sensitive information, Protection-strength grading, Neuroethical risks
