Custom Regex / Keywords

The Custom Regex / Keywords feature allows administrators to extend the sensitivity scan capabilities of CYRISMA by adding custom regular expressions (RegEx) or keyword lists. These custom configurations help identify organization-specific patterns or terms during Data Sensitivity Scans that are not covered by the pre-existing scan categories.
