Privacy. Compliance.
By Design.
Cenz-AI is architected from the ground up to support enterprise compliance across DPDP, GDPR, HIPAA, ISO 27001, and SOC 2 — delivering AI-powered PII redaction that meets the highest global regulatory standards.
Key Regulatory Frameworks
Detailed compliance mapping for the three primary data privacy regulations our platform is engineered to support.
India's landmark data privacy legislation enacted in 2023 establishes a comprehensive framework for the protection of personal data of individuals (Data Principals) collected in digital form. The Act imposes obligations on Data Fiduciaries—entities that process personal data—to ensure lawful, purpose-limited, and consent-based data handling.
- Requires explicit, informed consent before processing personal data
- Mandates data minimisation and purpose limitation
- Introduces Data Protection Board of India for enforcement
- Penalties of up to â‚ą250 crore per violation
- Applies to all digital personal data of Indian residents
The GDPR is the world's most comprehensive data protection law, applicable to any organisation processing personal data of EU residents regardless of where the organisation is located. It enshrines privacy as a fundamental right and mandates privacy-by-design as an architectural principle — not an afterthought.
- Right to erasure, portability, and access for data subjects
- Privacy-by-design and data protection impact assessments (DPIA)
- 72-hour breach notification requirement
- Fines up to €20M or 4% of global annual revenue
- Data Protection Officer (DPO) mandatory for large-scale processing
HIPAA establishes national standards for protecting sensitive patient health information (PHI) in the United States. It applies to covered entities (healthcare providers, insurers) and their business associates who handle PHI in any form — including calls, documents, images, and video recordings.
- Protected Health Information (PHI) must be de-identified before sharing
- Minimum Necessary Standard for data access and sharing
- Administrative, physical, and technical safeguard requirements
- Civil penalties up to $1.9M per violation category per year
- Applies to audio transcripts, clinical notes, and medical images
Provides a systematic approach to managing sensitive company and customer information. Our development and operational pipelines align with ISO 27001 Annex A controls for access management, cryptographic controls, and incident response.
Validates that our platform meets the AICPA Trust Services Criteria for security, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality, and privacy. An independent audit validates our operational adherence to these controls.
How Our AI Supports Regulatory Requirements
Each detection modality in Cenz-AI is mapped to specific regulatory obligations — ensuring compliance is embedded into the redaction pipeline, not bolted on.
Multi-engine NLP + regex detection identifies names, SSNs, emails, addresses, and 20+ PII types within free-form text. Redaction is applied inline, preserving document structure integrity. Supports GDPR Article 25 (data minimisation) and DPDP consent workflows.
Combines EasyOCR and Tesseract for multi-language text extraction from images and scanned documents. PII bounding boxes are detected, then visually blackened at the pixel level — making redaction forensically irreversible. Critical for HIPAA-regulated clinical imaging.
Whisper ASR transcribes speech to text, NLP detects PII tokens, and the corresponding audio segments are replaced with beep tones. Complete audit logs map each redacted span back to the original waveform timestamp. Aligned with HIPAA call recording standards.
Frame-by-frame OCR detects on-screen PII text; face detection blurs identities; and the audio track is processed through the audio redaction pipeline. Combined outputs create a fully anonymized video file compliant with DPDP, GDPR, and broadcast privacy standards.
Trust & Security Architecture
Every layer of Cenz-AI is designed with security-first principles — protecting your data throughout the entire processing lifecycle.
All data in transit is protected with TLS 1.3. Temporary in-memory buffers use process-level isolation — no plaintext data ever touches persistent storage.
Uploaded files are streamed directly into the redaction pipeline and deleted immediately post-processing. No file is retained beyond the active API session.
Every detection event is logged with: entity type, engine source, confidence score, redaction strategy applied, and UTC timestamp — ready for DPA or HIPAA audit requests.
Role-based access and API key authentication ensure only authorised services can invoke the redaction pipeline. Session tokens expire after inactivity.
