Preventing the receipt of unwanted sensitive data
In order to prevent the unintended receipt of sensitive data, Signifyd has implemented various protocols at the API layer that will reject requests that are identified to contain unwanted sensitive data. Upon receipt of a request containing unwanted sensitive data, Signifyd's API will immediately reject the request with a 400 HTTP status code and indicate the motive for the request rejection with the following error message:
Potentially sensitive data detected. Refer to Signifyd API documentation for more information about our Sensitive Data Protection Layer.
The sensitive data itself is not logged or persisted within Signifyd's system in any way, and we actively monitor our system to detect unwanted sensitive data from our customers.
