How Sylure finds personal data

Detection is deterministic, using our own infrastructure. No third-party AI system reads your files, and no file content, evidence snippet or detected value is ever shared with an AI provider.

  1. Processed on our own infrastructure

    Files are parsed by our own workers across 45 formats, including scanned PDFs and images read in-house, without being sent to an external conversion or OCR service.

  2. Everything inside is extracted

    Embedded content is unpacked and scanned, including JSON within log files, HTML within JSON and attachments within emails.

  3. Scanned from start to finish

    Large exports are scanned in full rather than sampled from only the first page or section.

  4. Checked in context

    A value is assessed alongside the surrounding words, helping distinguish genuine personal data from unrelated matches.

  5. Machine learning stays in-house

    Quantised BERT models run by default on every upload, within a fixed time budget, to identify names that rules alone may miss, including a multilingual model for names written in non-Latin scripts. They run entirely within our own workers and never through a third-party API.

  6. Validated before reporting

    Where a value supports checksum validation, it must pass before it is reported. Invalid matches are discarded.
