There are two main categories of built-in (predefined) detection profiles: by type of sensitive information and by compliance standards.

  • Types of Sensitive Items

    • PII : Personal Identifiable Information

    • PHI : Protected Health Information

    • NPI : Non-Public Information

    • CHD : Cardholder Data

    • SAD : Sensitive Authentication Data

  • Compliance

    • GDPR : General Data Protection Regulation (EU)

    • HIPAA : Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (US)

    • ISMS-P : Personal information & Information Security Management System (South Korea)

    • PCI-DSS : Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard

    • PIPA : Personal Information Protection Act (South Korea)

    • HITECH : Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health Act (US)

    • PIPEDA : Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (Canada)

    • GLBA : Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (US)

    • CCPA : California Consumer Privacy Act (US California)

While built-in detection profiles can be selected when creating a discovery job, they contain numerous connected data patterns, which may lead to longer scan times. For quicker scans, it is recommended to create a custom profile with only the desired patterns.

Built-in profiles cannot be deleted or modified, but the data patterns they include can be reviewed.

Adding a Custom Detection Profile

To create a custom detection profile, click the + Detection Profile button at the top of the Detection Profile list. This will take you to the creation page where you can specify the data patterns to be included in the profile.
