| ### What is PIISA? |
| We are Canadian Non-Profit that spawend from the BigScience Piracy Working Group. PIISA stands for a Personally Identifiable Information Standard Architecture. This open source and interoperable framework creates a standard designed to allow seamless interoperability between various PII processing frameworks. |
|
|
| ### Rationale |
| Our mission statement stems from these facts: |
|
|
| Proper PII management is hard, and has many facets. |
|
|
| There are solutions available for PII processing, both open source and commercial |
|
|
| We might want to combine several solutions to achieve better results, or to adapt to specific use cases |
|
|
| However there is no practical way of achieving such combination, or of customizing solutions |
|
|
| Our approach has been let's define an architecture that decomposes the PII problem into blocks, and let's define interfaces between those blocks |
|
|
| Therefore the PIISA specification, and its reference implementation, tries to follow the approach of independent components that pass data between them to compose a full solution |
