Managing Categories

On This Page

Overview

Categories identify the type of data being detected. DryvIQ comes with the five default categories: Financial, General, Privacy, Regulation, and Technology. You can also create custom categories if one of the default categories doesn’t capture what your entity type will be identifying. Preinstalled entity types will be assigned a corresponding default category. All custom entity types you create default to “General,” so you will need to edit the category if a specific category needs to be used.
