Cod Numeric Personal
Detects Cod Numeric Personal 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.

- universal
- Confidence
- high
- Confidence justification
- High confidence: pattern has strong structural constraints (specific format, prefix, or character class restrictions) that significantly reduce false positive rates. Added context gating and exclusion rules improve precision and reduce incidental matches.

Known false positives
- The first-digit constraint (1-8) and 13-digit length provide good structural validation, but long numeric strings may appear in other contexts. Mitigation: Validate embedded date (digits 2-7) and require corroborative evidence keywords for higher confidence.
- 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.
