Processing order of scan techniques

Privacera Discovery applies tags to dataset attributes using defined rules . This is done by comparing data against dictionaries and models. The application of tags depends on the order of relevant rules. After a rule is triggered, the rest of the relevant rules are not processed.

After creating rules, you can reorder them into the necessary sequence to ensure that your data is tagged appropriately. See Reorder Structured Rules for more information.

Start a scan

There are several ways to start scans in Privacera Discovery:

  • From the Data Sources page, which is described here.

  • For offline (re-scan) or realtime (continuous) scans. See Offline and Realtime Scans.

  • If you have set up datazones, starting a scan, called reevaluation , is discussed in Data zones overview.

To start a scan from the Data Source page, follow these steps:

  1. From the Applications section, select the application that contains the resource you want to scan.

  2. In the Scanning Details section, locate the resource you want to scan.

  3. Click SCAN RESOURCE.

A message appears indicating that a scan has been initiated.
