Context aware, pluggable and customizable PII anonymization service for text and images.
Presidio (Origin from Latin praesidium ‘protection, garrison’) helps to ensure sensitive text is properly managed and governed. It provides fast analytics and anonymization for sensitive text such as credit card numbers, names, locations, social security numbers, bitcoin wallets, US phone numbers and financial data. Presidio analyzes the text using predefined or custom recognizers to identify entities, patterns, formats, and checksums with relevant context. Presidio leverages docker and kubernetes for workloads at scale.
Presidio can be integrated into any data pipeline for intelligent PII scrubbing. It is open-source, transparent and scalable. Additionally, PII anonymization use-cases often require a different set of PII entities to be detected, some of which are domain or business specific. Presidio allows you to customize or add new PII recognizers via API or code to best fit your anonymization needs.
