Abstract
As online education grows in popularity, issues concerning learners’ privacy and security have become increasingly important. This chapter delves into the creative use of generative adversarial networks (GANs) to handle the complex difficulties of protecting sensitive information in the online education scene. The chapter opens with a detailed assessment of the present situation of online education. The chapter focuses on the integration of GANs into the online education environment to improve privacy and security. The chapter delves into the technical features of GANs, demonstrating how these networks may be tailored to generate synthetic yet indistinguishable data, reducing the danger of privacy violations. In addition to privacy protection, the chapter investigates the function of GANs in improving the overall cybersecurity posture of online education platforms. Finally, the chapter emphasises Generative Adversarial Networks’ transformational potential in altering the privacy and security environment of online education.
