Data De-identification & Anonymization
The process of data de-identification, data masking, and data anonymization ensure the removal of all PHI/PII (personal health/identifying information) such as names and social security numbers that may directly or indirectly connect an individual to their data. Moreover, Shaip also provides proprietary APIs that can anonymize sensitive data in text content with extremely high accuracy. Our APIs then leverage the de-identification process to transform, mask, delete, or otherwise obscure the sensitive data.
