Reducing False Positives with Structured
Data Matching
Matching to database extracts
Protect the exact data you care about not just a pattern that
looks like a credit card number, but your customers actual credit
card numbers
Protect data that is difficult to describe and only important if
related - e.g. Employee first name, last name and salary
Once a fingerprint has been created from these data, the
administrator can specify what defines a violation
E.g. fields required for a match
First Name Last Name Social Security Hair Color
