Correlation Learning Sets
▪ To associate discovered personal information with specific entities, it is
necessary to add and configure at least one Correlation Learning Set
What is an Entity?
An individual or a “thing” for which sensitive information has
been collected during a business process.
We can still discover sensitive ‘non-personal’ data using the various classification-based
discovery forms.
✔ High identifiability
✔ Good data coverage
✔ Semantic sense
Poor choices:
○ First name (not highly-identifiable)
○ High-res timestamp (highly-unique but not found elsewhere)
○ Password (not found elsewhere)
Composite Identifier – define a foreign key as a unique identifier for other tables
■ Defines a composite key used as the foreign key between one table and another table, in the case
where no direct unique ID correlation is available
■ Will be used when running a full scan
■ Currently not supported in access requests
