Abstract

Classification for data intake operations in an enterprise ensures that sensitive data is not disseminated inappropriately, but incurs substantial time, effort and expense. A method of classifying data in a large set of data repositories captures a set of raw rules resulting from inputs indicative of evaluations and conclusions of data classification operations, typically by logging data classification operations, and identifies patterns in the set of raw rules by consolidating duplicative conditions and eliminating inconsequential conditions. External conditions and observations may be referenced for applying a context to the rules based on a usage or domain of the data, and data sets of disparate entities may be examined for anonymizing the data and combining with other sets of anonymized data.
