Automatic Sensitive Data Masking in API Payloads

Automatic detection and masking of sensitive data in LLM API payloads to enhance privacy and compliance with data protection regulations.
Automatic detection and masking of sensitive data patterns are now available in the scan API output, which scans the prompts and responses in Large Language Models (LLM). This feature replaces sensitive information such as Social Security Numbers and bank account details with "X" characters while maintaining the original text length. API scan logs indicate sensitive content with the new "Content Masked" column.
As LLMs become more prevalent, the risk of inadvertently exposing sensitive data increases. This automatic masking capability enhances data privacy and maintains compliance with data protection regulations. Proactively obscuring sensitive information reduces the risk of data leakage, strengthens the security posture of AI applications, and builds greater trust in the use of AI models by ensuring sensitive details are never fully exposed in logs or intermediary steps.
