Detection Technology
piisafe.eu uses a hybrid approach combining multiple detection techniques to achieve high accuracy across all entity types:
- 317 Regex Patterns: Precision pattern matching for well-structured PII (SSN, credit cards, IBAN, etc.)
- NLP & ML: Natural Language Processing and Machine Learning for context-aware detection (names, addresses, etc.)
- Fuzzy Matching: Tolerance for variations in formatting and typos
- Multilingual Support: 48 languages with region-specific patterns and validation rules
- Checksum Validation: Validates format-based identifiers (credit cards, SSNs, IBAN) for legitimate patterns
- Contextual Analysis: Understands context (e.g., credit card next to expiry date = high confidence)
- Microsoft Presidio Foundation: Built on proven open-source PII detection engine
