OneTrust enhances data discovery and governance by introducing AI-powered document classification

“An organization’s data drives innovation and gives it a competitive edge. Blake Brannon, Chief Product and Strategy Officer, OneTrust. “But with data sprawl and lack of visibility into where sensitive data resides across an organization, that data can quickly become an Achilles heel, leading to the financial and reputational impact of a breach and the ever-increasing loss of data. Potentially exposed to abuse: Using AI to classify unstructured documents at scale, organizations can automatically apply appropriate policies to protect data and become more data-driven and know that data is being used responsibly across the business.”

OneTrust’s AI-driven document classification capabilities:

• Analyze full file content and context. OneTrust uses AI to analyze context, patterns, and terminology across unstructured files, identifying not only terms and taxonomies within files, but also file types. Common examples include resumes, financial statements, source code, and medical records.
• Automate data policies such as data retention. Many retention requirements are for specific types of documents such as resumes and medical records. By tagging documents according to this full context, not just the terms within the document, organizations can better understand which retention policies apply and automate remedial actions such as deletion or editing.

This capability joins the many powerful identification and classification capabilities available through OneTrust Data Discovery.

• Named Entity Recognition (NER) identifies precise named entities such as people, organizations, and places in unstructured data.
• Optical Character Recognition (OCR) AI models extract characters from images, including printed and handwritten text.
• Security classifiers for AWS, Azure, and Google API keys, along with cryptographic keys and secrets, passwords, and usernames reduce the risk of exposure through data leaks or breaches.
• Regulatory intelligence enhances jurisdictional insight by correlating classified personally identifiable information (PII) with applicable laws and regulations, such as the CPRA.

Automated, intelligent data discovery and classification is the first step in an organization’s commitment to responsible data use and governance. AI-driven classification saves time and effort by classifying data at scale to reduce manual intervention and improve accuracy. To combat data sprawl, organizations can minimize their data footprint by automatically applying retention and deletion policies to ensure only necessary and relevant data is stored. , can reduce data risk.

OneTrust Data Discovery is part of the OneTrust Privacy and Data Governance Cloud, providing security, marketing, and privacy teams with one platform to discover, control, and activate responsible use of data across the organization. increase.
