Sensitive data is governed before AI sees it.
Limit Platform discovers, classifies, redacts, and tracks sensitive data inside the customer perimeter. PII, financial identifiers, privileged information are governed at the data boundary, not at the application edge.
// data handling · before ai sees it · inside the perimeter
Governance lives at the data, not at the application.
AI applications consume whatever data they are given. If the data has not been governed first, the application becomes the leak surface. The right place to redact a Social Security number, mask a privileged communication, or block a salary disclosure is at the data layer, before it ever reaches a model.
Limit Data makes governance a platform concern, not an application concern. Every Limit Systems application benefits from the same discovery, classification, redaction, and lineage tracking. Customer-built applications get the same surface through the platform interfaces.
Discover, classify, redact, track.
- 01
Discovery across the customer data estate
Scans document stores, structured databases, file shares, and message queues to surface where sensitive data lives. Does not require data to be moved or copied for scanning.
- 02
Classification against regulatory categories and customer rules
Maps findings to GDPR, UK-GDPR, financial-identifier, health-data, and privileged-information categories, plus any customer-defined categories. Each finding includes the rule and the confidence.
- 03
Redaction, tokenization, and synthetic substitution at the boundary
Sensitive fields are redacted, tokenized, or replaced with structure-preserving synthetic data before reaching downstream consumers. The original stays in the customer-controlled store.
- 04
Lineage tracking for every flow
Every read of governed data, every redaction, every downstream consumer is logged. Data-protection officers can answer subject-access requests from the evidence store, not from forensic reconstruction.
Data stays where the customer keeps it.
Data-handling capabilities deploy inside the customer perimeter, near the data stores they scan. Scans operate against native protocols (filesystem, S3-compatible, database connections, message queues) without requiring data to be copied or staged externally.
Classification rules are versioned. Redaction actions are reversible only by authorized operators, with the reversal logged. Evidence supports subject-access requests, breach-notification timelines, and routine DPO review.
- Where it runs
- Inside the customer data environment, alongside the stores it scans. No off-perimeter staging.
- What it scans
- Document stores, structured databases, file shares, message queues. Customer-defined connectors for in-house systems.
- What categories it covers
- GDPR PII, financial identifiers, health data, privileged information, customer-defined categories. Rules are versioned and reviewable.
- How it interoperates
- Used by every Limit Systems application and exposed to customer-built applications through the platform interfaces.
This capability is one layer of the operating system. Every application uses it. Every customer perimeter that runs Limit Platform gets it. See the full architecture →
