PII Disclosure

PII (Personally Identifiable Information) disclosure occurs when sensitive data like credit card numbers or social security numbers appear in page content.

Why It Matters

Exposed PII violates privacy regulations (GDPR, PCI-DSS, CCPA), can lead to identity theft and financial fraud, and exposes your organization to significant legal liability.

How We Check

We scan page content for credit card number patterns (with Luhn validation) and Social Security Number formats. Analysis is limited to the first 200KB of content.

How to Fix

Implement server-side data masking for all displayed PII. Use tokenization for payment data. Apply data loss prevention (DLP) controls. Never store or display full credit card numbers in HTML.
