Redaction

This topic contains information on configuring redaction plans and entities.

Redaction Plans​

Redaction plans can be used as an optional migration step to remove specific entities from supported content types. During the migration of a document a migration plan will remove the following entity types (depending on the configuration):

  • NLP Entities—Items that the NLP entity extraction identifies, such as names or locations. NLP stands for Natural Language Processing, which is a subfield of artificial intelligence and allows to classify and identify such entities in text as places, organizations, dates, names, monetary values, and others

  • Regex Entities—Items that the Regex classification clues identify, such as credit card numbers or social security numbers

    • You can skip specific clues as part of a redaction plan by specifying Excluded Clues, such as: “VISA” or “SSN” (matched to the term name)
  • Custom Entities—Any custom words or phrases associated with the plan.

Masking based redaction retains a specified number of start / end characters from each redacted value.
