This data can be held in any record type including word archives, accounting pages, notebook documents, XML documents, and even compressed records. With respect to information subject identifiers, a hunt should have the option to signal those examples and ordinary articulations (regexes) that apply to GDPR information across the 28-part states, for example, public recognizable proof numbers, visa number, individual ID number, VAT number, etc.
