The Industry's First Discriminative Pre-Trained Transformer (DPT)
A breakthrough in sensitive data protection technology, introducing the revolutionary DPT architecture - a new class of AI model specifically engineered for high-precision entity recognition and classification tasks.
DataFence Onyx delivers enterprise-grade performance that redefines what's possible in data protection
PII detection across 30+ entity types including SSNs, credit cards, API keys, and medical records
Industry-leading detection coverage
Real-time data protection at enterprise scale
Compared to traditional regex and rule-based systems
Optimized for real-time processing
Minimal memory footprint for maximum efficiency
Seamless integration across platforms
Unlike generative models that create content, DataFence Onyx's DPT architecture is purpose-built for discriminative tasks - making binary decisions about data classification with surgical precision.
Specialized design optimized specifically for entity recognition and classification tasks
Distinguishes between "John Smith (patient)" and "John Smith (doctor)" with contextual understanding
Capable of detecting sensitive data across various redaction and formatting attempts
Binary classification decisions vs content generation
Lightning-fast processing with minimal resources
Built for high-performance enterprise environments
Dedicated secure API infrastructure for org policy enforcement
Trained on our exclusive dataset comprising over 10 million labeled examples across diverse industries
Comprehensive dataset covering real-world scenarios across healthcare, finance, legal, and technology sectors
Understands nuanced differences that escape rule-based systems, reducing false positives dramatically
Specialized in document and entity recognition across healthcare (PHI, medical records, diagnoses), financial services (PCI, account numbers, transaction data), and government CUI (classified markings, security clearances, ITAR)
Unlike legacy DLP solutions like Microsoft Purview, DataFence Onyx's DPT architecture delivers real-time protection with unprecedented accuracy
See how Onyx DPT compares to enterprise alternatives
Unlike Microsoft Purview (which requires you to build and train your own models) or Symantec DLP (which is rules-based only), DataFence includes Onyx DPT AI out-of-the-box on all plans
