What types of data does Nightfall classify?
Nightfall classifies over 100+ types of sensitive data, including forms of personally identifiable data (PII), protected health information (PHI), payment card information (PCI), credentials & secrets, and more. For example, email addresses, credit card numbers, social security numbers, API keys, passwords, and many more. These data types support compliance regimes like HIPAA, GDPR, HIPAA, PCI-DSS. Likewise, Nightfall’s detectors apply to a broad variety of industries and geographies (countries in US, EMEA, APAC, etc.).
Nightfall also supports custom detectors, as well as features such as an “allow list” that enable you to further tune detectors to your specific business needs and increase accuracy. Contact us at sales@nightfall.ai to determine if Nightfall supports detectors that meet your needs.
