Anonymization Quality Review #71

Open Soyboy3911 opened 7 months ago

Soyboy3911 commented 7 months ago

This issue is focused on evaluating the effectiveness and accuracy of the anonymization procedure used for Personally Identifiable Information (PII) in our project.

No issues were found with CRYPTO anonymization. Although the initial number passes checksum, it begins with two numerical characters and is invalid as a Bitcoin wallet number. The initial address was not anonymized. Anonymization was accurately done to the valid Bitcoin address.

There were no issues found with the URL anonymization, the code successfully replaced the URL so that sensitive/personal information wasn't shown/detected.

I see no issues with the NRP anonymization except for one. When I ran the code it replaced the sensitive information as it should for the mention of someone's nationality but it is incorrectly is used when replacing a passport number.

Perhaps anonymization is being triggered by the mention of the specific country's passport?

I found no issues with the IT Passport anonymization. However, I believe that it can be improved by replacing the generic placeholder with a more specific one, such as . This will provide clearer context and make it easier to understand the type of information that is being anonymized.

@Soyboy3911 Do you think NRP should have been IT_PASSPORT? 

The passport number on the plane ticket was incorrect because it was an IT passport. The correct number is <NRP>
