Consistent performance across supported languages
Supported Languages:
-
English
-
German
-
French
-
Spanish
-
Dutch
Impact:
-
Enables seamless adoption in multi-region deployments
-
Improves accuracy for PII detection and processing in native languages
-
Reduces dependency on pre-translation before API calls
Supported entities
See the full list of supported entities in PII / PHI / PCI entities.
2 more entities have been added:
-
NATIONAL_ID
-
PASSWORD
Note:** CITY, COUNTRY**, and PINCODEare derived sub-entities extracted from the existing ADDRESS entity. They provide more granular location data without requiring separate detection logic.

-
Metadata updates now propagate immediately to all new masking operations
-
Clear separation between anonymizable entities, pseudonymizable entities, and excluded entities
Security & Admin
-
Stronger validation on namespace deletion and background job tracking
-
Improved error messages for expired or invalid admin tokens
Vault & Tokenization
-
attributesobject added to Mask and Unmask APIs — enables tracking of page number, source ID, or custom metadata -
