Credit card numbers tokenization
Customer support agents paste credit card numbers into AI summarizers all the time. Cypherz catches them with Luhn validation — no false positives on random numeric strings, no PANs leaving your environment.
01
Luhn-validated
Only values that pass the Luhn checksum are tokenized — eliminates false positives.
02
Supports separator variations
Handles `4111 1111 1111 1111`, `4111-1111-1111-1111`, `4111111111111111`.
03
Keeps PCI scope tight
Your LLM vendor never receives a PAN — they cannot become part of your PCI environment.
Same input, with and without Cypherz
// Without Cypherz — the model sees real data:
Card on file: 4111 1111 1111 1111. Charge $42.50.
// With Cypherz — the model sees surrogates:
Card on file: <CC_a1b2c3d4e5f6>. Charge <AMT_d4e5f6a1b2c3>.
// The application gets the original back inside its trust boundary.Common questions
Frequently asked.
Are credit card numbers tokens deterministic?
Yes — within a project, the same input always maps to the same surrogate token. This makes joins, dedupe, and analytics keep working on tokenized data without ever decrypting.
Can I disable this detector for a specific project?
Yes — every detector is toggleable per project at creation time and editable from the dashboard.
What if I have a custom format Cypherz doesn't recognize?
Add a custom regex or literal list per project. Cypherz applies your rules after the built-in detectors run.
Are tokenization mappings encrypted at rest?
Yes — AES-256-GCM with envelope encryption. Each project has its own data-encryption key wrapped under the master key.
