Tip
|
If you need Cloud Data Sense to identify other private data types, such as additional national ID numbers or healthcare identifiers, email [email protected] with your request. |
The personal data found in files can be general personal data or national identifiers. The third column identifies whether Cloud Data Sense uses proximity validation to validate its findings for the identifier.
The items in this category can be recognized in any language.
Note that you can add to the list of personal data that is found in your files if you are scanning a database server. The Data Fusion feature allows you to choose the additional identifiers that Cloud Data Sense will look for in its' scans by selecting columns in a database table. See Adding personal data identifiers using Data Fusion for details.

Cloud Data Sense scans all files for category and metadata insights and displays all file types in the file types section of the dashboard.
But when Data Sense detects Personal Identifiable Information (PII), or when it performs a DSAR search, only the following file formats are supported:
.CSV, .DCM, .DICOM, .DOC, .DOCX, .JSON, .PDF, .PPTX, .RTF, .TXT, .XLS, and .XLSX.
NetApp can’t guarantee 100% accuracy of the personal data and sensitive personal data that Cloud Data Sense identifies. You should always validate the information by reviewing the data.
Based on our testing, the table below shows the accuracy of the information that Data Sense finds. We break it down by precision and recall:
- Precision
-
The probability that what Data Sense finds has been identified correctly. For example, a precision rate of 90% for personal data means that 9 out of 10 files identified as containing personal information, actually contain personal information. 1 out of 10 files would be a false positive.
- Recall
-
The probability for Data Sense to find what it should. For example, a recall rate of 70% for personal data means that Data Sense can identify 7 out of 10 files that actually contain personal information in your organization. Data Sense would miss 30% of the data and it won’t appear in the dashboard.
We are constantly improving the accuracy of our results. Those improvements will be automatically available in future Data Sense releases.
