Sensitive Object Detector
- Andrea Harvey
The Sensitive Object Detector is a built-in entity type. It is trained to identify and classify images of sensitive data, such as identification cards, fingerprints, license plates, etc. You can upload individual documents to the classifier, and it will identify any images of sensitive information. If an image contains multiple sensitive objects, all items will be identified. For example, if the document contains an image of a driver’s license, the scan will identify both the ID card and signature as detected sensitive objects. You also have the option of including this entity type in the policies you create to identify documents based on file names.
Only the following image types will be scanned:
BM
BMP
GIF
ICB
JFIF
JPEG
JPG
PBM
PDF
PNG
TGA
TIFF (See note below.)
VDA
VST
WEBP
A TIFF is a complex image file made up of multiple parts; therefore, not all TIFF files can be successfully scanned for various reasons. If a TIFF file is found but can't be scanned, an error will be logged identifying why it couldn't be scanned.
