Smart Classification

What is Smart Classification (SC)?

Machine learning approach to data leak prevention

With Zivver Smart Classification, you improve the deployment of your email business rules. These rules indicate whether it is necessary to treat the email in question as sensitive.

Legacy deployments only use lists of words and patterns to flag sensitive information like medical, financial, or legal. In practice, however, this method yields false positives and decreases user acceptance.

Smart Classification is a step forward. It uses machine learning to detect the contextual signals that make information sensitive. Our research found that Smart Classification is 3 to 4 times more precise than the legacy methods.

You can use Smart Classification with all Zivver products that support business rules.

Start with Smart Classification

Your organization will use Smart Classification by default. No action is required from you.

Users might see that Zivver warns less often but more precisely. Smart Classification might not mark information as sensitive that previously got a sensitive flag.

If you have reasons to use the legacy deployment of the business rules, use the Opt-out form to cancel. If you want to upgrade after you canceled, you can speak to your customer success manager.
