Numéro d'identification national
Detects Numéro d'identification national patterns. This pattern is based on a Microsoft Purview built-in sensitive information type. Users already running Purview may prefer to enable the built-in SIT directly, or use this version as a starting point for customisation.

- Confidence justification
- Medium confidence: pattern has structural constraints but corroborative keywords are recommended to reduce false positive rates. Context label evidence plus explicit template/example exclusion improves precision for high-risk identifiers. Added context gating and exclusion rules improve precision and reduce incidental matches.

Known false positives
- Thirteen-digit numeric sequences are relatively uncommon but may appear in long reference numbers or barcodes. Mitigation: Require corroborative evidence keywords such as "numéro d'identification" or "matricule" within the proximity window.
- In multiple languages, similar terminology used in formal or administrative contexts (education, professional documentation) that does not constitute sensitive data collection. Mitigation: Layer with additional contextual signals such as structured identifiers, form fields, or database column headers to distinguish sensitive records from general references.
