Personal Identifiable Information, or PII, is information about an individual that can be linked to that individual in an identifiable manner. How and by whom PII is handled and accessed is regulated by laws such as HIPAA, GDPR, and CCPA. Redacting PII from video or audio files (for example, a doctor/patient visit) is a very common need. Luckily, we can use AI to easily redact PII at scale.
