Detect general, customer, employee and bulk PII

.md .json

Acceptance criteria

Correctly classify realistic personal, customer, employee and multi-person records inside contextual prompts.

Why it matters

Personal data is the most regulated thing employees paste into AI, often as whole records rather than single fields.

How to verify

Realistic customer, employee and multi-person records in pilot prompts are detected on default configuration.

OWASP adoption context

Personal data can be submitted through any listed employee AI context; the tier does not determine whether the content is sensitive.

Framework mappings

  • Contextual recognition of individual and bulk personal records supplies a detection input for protecting data in transit. Classification alone does not prevent release.

  • Personal-data findings make relevant privacy exposure visible for examination and documentation. Recognizing PII does not complete the AI system’s privacy-risk assessment.

  • PII recognition informs transfer controls and, for records designated confidential, confidential-information identification. It does not establish notice, consent or a complete privacy program. C1.1 applies only when the Confidentiality category and relevant information are in scope.

  • Contextual PII recognition feeds leakage controls and privacy safeguards. A.8.12 needs an operated leakage-protection workflow with approved handling rules and defined alert triage, warnings, blocking or another protective response. Detection does not determine a lawful basis, fulfill privacy rights or establish regulatory compliance.
