Personal Data (PD) or Personally Identifiable Information (PII) related to your customers may be on your database after the customer has completed some business transaction with your organization.
Classifiers are information or data patterns that map to Personal Data (PD) or Personally Identifiable Information (PII) related to your customers. From an exhaustive list of around 100+ classifiers, here are a few examples:
- PAN CARD – India
- ADHAR CARD – India
- DRIVING LICENSE NO – India
- SSIN – USA
- Driving License- UK
After you have added the data sources, the instances of the data sources are listed in Seqrite Data Privacy along with the related information. The following details related to the instances are listed.
| Column Name | Description |
|---|---|
| Instance Name | Name of the instance in which sensitive data might be located. |
| Status | Status of the task. |
| Server IP / URL | Server IP / URL on which the instance is stored. |
| Location | Geographical location of the instance. |
Seqrite Data Privacy automatically identifies the information in the data sources based on the default or custom classifiers in Seqrite Data Privacy search engine. However, you must verify if the classifiers are correctly mapped to the information in the table. You may need to edit a classifier type that is listed in the displayed table.
