Amazon Macie, a visibility security service that helps classify and secure your sensitive and business-critical content.

A custom data identifier is a set of criteria that you define to detect sensitive data. The criteria consist of a regular expression (regex) that defines a text pattern to match and, optionally, character sequences and a proximity rule that refine the results.

Create Macie custom data identifier

In Amazon Macie, an allow list defines specific text or a text pattern that you want Macie to ignore when it inspects Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) objects for sensitive data.

Create Macie allow list

With Amazon Macie, you create and run sensitive data discovery jobs to automate discovery, logging, and reporting of sensitive data in Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) buckets.

Create Macie sensitive data discovery job

Automated data discovery in Amazon Macie uses various techniques including resource clustering by attributes such as bucket name, file types, and prefixes to cost-efficiently sample data broadly across an organization and minimize the data scanning needed to uncover sensitive data in Amazon S3 buckets.
