## Redaction Strategies

ZeroPhix supports multiple redaction strategies to balance privacy and data utility:

| Strategy | Description | Example | Use Case |
|----------|-------------|---------|----------|
| **replace** | Full replacement with entity type | `<SSN>` or `<AU_TFN>` | Maximum privacy, clear labeling |
| **mask** | Partial masking | `29****3456` or `***-**-6789` | Data utility + privacy balance |
| **hash** | Consistent hashing | `HASH_A1B2C3D4` | Record linking, de-duplication |
| **encrypt** | Reversible encryption | `ENC_XYZ123` | Secure storage, de-anonymization |
| **brackets** / **redact** | Simple [REDACTED] | `[REDACTED]` | Document redaction, printouts |
| **synthetic** | Realistic fake data | `Alex Smith` / `555-1234` | Testing, demos, data sharing |
| **preserve_format** | Format-preserving | `K8d-2L-m9P3` (for SSN) | Schema compatibility |
| **au_phone** | Keep AU area code | `04XX-XXX-XXX` | Australian context preservation |
| **differential_privacy** | Statistical noise | Original ± noise | Research, analytics |
| **k_anonymity** | Generalization | `<30` (age) / `20XX` (postcode) | Privacy-preserving analytics |

**Usage:**
```python
# Choose your strategy
config = RedactionConfig(
    country="AU",
    masking_style="hash"  # or: replace, mask, encrypt, synthetic, etc.
)
pipeline = RedactionPipeline(config)
result = pipeline.redact(text)

# Strategy-specific options
config = RedactionConfig(
    masking_style="mask",
    mask_percentage=0.7,  # Mask 70% of characters
    preserve_format=True
)
```

```python
config = RedactionConfig(mode="auto")  # Auto-selects best detectors
```

## Choosing the Right Configuration

### Decision Tree: What Should You Use?

**The best configuration is always empirical** - it depends on your specific use case, data characteristics, accuracy requirements, and performance constraints. We strongly recommend testing multiple configurations on your actual data to determine what works best.

#### Quick Decision Guide

```
START HERE
│
├─ Need MAXIMUM SPEED (real-time, high-volume)?
│  └─ Use: mode='fast' (regex only)
│     - High Speed
│     - High precision on structured IDs
│     - Best for: emails, phones, SSN, TFN, ABN, credit cards
│     - May miss: names in unstructured text, context-dependent entities
│
├─ Need MAXIMUM ACCURACY (compliance-critical)?
│  └─ Use: mode='accurate' (regex + all ML models)
│     - High recall (catches more PII)
│     - Best for: healthcare PHI, legal discovery, GDPR compliance
│     - Slower
│     - Higher memory: 500MB-2GB
│
├─ Structured data ONLY (CSV, forms, databases)?
│  └─ Use: mode='fast' with validation
│     - Checksum validation for TFN/ABN/Medicare
│     - Format-specific patterns
│     - Near-perfect precision
│
├─ Unstructured text (emails, documents, notes)?
│  └─ Use: mode='accurate' OR custom ensemble
│     - Combines regex + spaCy + BERT/GLiNER
│     - Catches names, context-dependent entities
│     - Better recall on varied text
│
├─ Healthcare/Medical data?
│  └─ Use: mode='accurate' + use_openmed=True
│     - PHI-optimized models
│     - Medical terminology awareness
│     - HIPAA compliance focus (87.5% recall benchmark)
│
├─ Custom entity types (not standard PII)?
│  └─ Use: GLiNER with custom labels
│     - Zero-shot detection - no training needed
│     - Just name what you want: "employee ID", "project code"
│     - Works on domain-specific identifiers
│
└─ Not sure? Testing multiple datasets?
   └─ Use: mode='auto'
      - Intelligently selects detectors per document
      - Good starting point
      - Then benchmark and tune based on your results
```

### Configuration Examples by Use Case

**High-Volume Transaction Processing:**
```python
config = RedactionConfig(
    mode='fast',
    use_spacy=False,
    use_bert=False,
    enable_checksum_validation=True  # TFN/ABN validation
)
# Prioritizes: Speed, low memory, structured data
```

**Healthcare Records (HIPAA Compliance):**
```python
config = RedactionConfig(
    mode='accurate',
    use_spacy=True,
    use_openmed=True,
    use_bert=True,
    recall_threshold=0.85  # Prioritize not missing PHI
)
# Prioritizes: High recall, medical PHI, compliance
```

**Legal Document Review:**
```python
config = RedactionConfig(
    mode='accurate',
    use_spacy=True,
    use_bert=True,
    use_gliner=True,
    precision_threshold=0.90  # Reduce false positives
)
# Prioritizes: Accuracy, names, case numbers, dates
```

**Customer Support Logs (Mixed Content):**
```python
config = RedactionConfig(
    mode='balanced',  # Medium speed + accuracy
    use_spacy=True,
    use_bert=False,  # Skip if speed matters
    batch_size=100
)
# Prioritizes: Balanced speed/accuracy, emails, phones, names
```

### Testing Recommendations

**Always benchmark on YOUR data:**

1. **Start with 'auto' mode** - Get baseline performance
2. **Test 'fast' mode** - Measure speed vs accuracy trade-off
3. **Test 'accurate' mode** - Measure recall improvement
4. **Try custom combinations** - Enable/disable specific detectors
5. **Measure what matters to YOU:**
   - False negatives (missed PII) → Increase recall threshold, add more detectors
   - False positives (over-redaction) → Increase precision threshold, tune regex patterns
   - Speed (docs/sec) → Disable slower ML models, use batch processing
   - Memory usage → Lazy-load models, reduce batch size

**Sample Evaluation Script:**
```python
from zerophix.eval.metrics import evaluate_detection

configs = [
    {'mode': 'fast'},
    {'mode': 'balanced'},
    {'mode': 'accurate'},
    {'mode': 'accurate', 'use_openmed': True}  # If healthcare data
]

for cfg in configs:
    pipeline = RedactionPipeline(RedactionConfig(**cfg))
    metrics = evaluate_detection(pipeline, your_test_data)
    print(f"{cfg}: Precision={metrics['precision']:.2f}, Recall={metrics['recall']:.2f}")
```

**Key Takeaway:** There is no one-size-fits-all configuration. The "best" setup depends on your data type, accuracy requirements, speed constraints, and compliance needs. Empirical testing is essential.

## Adaptive Ensemble - Auto-Configuration

**Problem:** Manual trial-and-error configuration with unpredictable accuracy  
**Solution:** Automatic calibration learns optimal detector weights from your data

### Quick Start

```python
from zerophix.config import RedactionConfig
from zerophix.pipelines.redaction import RedactionPipeline

# 1. Enable adaptive features
config = RedactionConfig(
    country="AU",
    use_gliner=True,
    use_openmed=True,
    enable_adaptive_weights=True,       # Auto-learns optimal weights
    enable_label_normalization=True,    # Fixes cross-detector consensus
)

pipeline = RedactionPipeline(config)

# 2. Calibrate on 20-50 labeled samples
validation_texts = ["John Smith has diabetes", "Call 555-1234", ...]
validation_ground_truth = [
    [(0, 10, "PERSON_NAME"), (15, 23, "DISEASE")],  # (start, end, label)
    [(5, 13, "PHONE_NUMBER")],
    # ...
]

results = pipeline.calibrate(
    validation_texts, 
    validation_ground_truth,
    save_path="calibration.json"  # Save for reuse
)

print(f"Optimized weights: {results['detector_weights']}")
# Output: {'gliner': 0.42, 'regex': 0.09, 'openmed': 0.12, 'spacy': 0.25}

# 3. Pipeline now has optimal weights! Use normally
result = pipeline.redact("Jane Doe, Medicare 2234 56781 2")
```

### Key Features

- **Adaptive Detector Weights**: Automatically adjusts weights based on F1 scores (F1²)
- **Label Normalization**: Normalizes labels BEFORE voting so "PERSON" (GLiNER) and "USERNAME" (regex) can vote together
- **One-Time Calibration**: Run once on 20-50 samples, save results, reuse forever
- **Performance Tracking**: Track detector metrics during operation
- **Save/Load**: Save calibration to JSON, load in production



### How It Works

```python
# Weight calculation (F1-squared method)
weight = max(0.1, detector_f1 ** 2)

# Example:
# GLiNER: F1=0.60 → weight=0.36 (High performer)
# Regex:  F1=0.30 → weight=0.09 (Noisy)
# OpenMed: F1=0.10 → weight=0.10 (Poor, floor applied)
```

### Production Usage

```python
# Load pre-calibrated weights
config = RedactionConfig(
    country="AU",
    use_gliner=True,
    enable_adaptive_weights=True,
    calibration_file="calibration.json"  # Load saved weights
)

pipeline = RedactionPipeline(config)
# Ready to use with optimal weights!
```

### One-Function Calibration (For Notebooks)

```python
# Copy-paste into your benchmark notebook
from examples.quick_calibrate import quick_calibrate_zerophix

pipeline, results = quick_calibrate_zerophix(test_samples, num_calibration_samples=20)
# Done! Pipeline has optimal weights learned from your data
```

### Benefits

- **Less trial-and-error** - Configure once, use everywhere  
- **Expected better precision** - Fewer false positives  
- **Higher F1** - Better overall accuracy  
- **Fast calibration** - 2-5 seconds for 20 samples  
- **100% backward compatible** - Opt-in via config flag

See [examples/adaptive_ensemble_examples.py](examples/adaptive_ensemble_examples.py) for complete examples.

- **Healthcare:** Medicare (mod 10), IHI, HPI-I/O, DVA number, PBS card
- **Driver Licenses:** All 8 states (NSW, VIC, QLD, SA, WA, TAS, NT, ACT)
- **Financial:** BSB numbers, Centrelink CRN, bank accounts
- **Geographic:** Enhanced addresses, postcodes (4-digit validation)
- **Organizations:** Government agencies, hospitals, universities, banks

**Checksum Validation Algorithms:**
```python
# TFN: Modulus 11 with weights [1,4,3,7,5,8,6,9,10]
# ABN: Modulus 89 (subtract 1 from first digit)
# ACN: Modulus 10 with weights [8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1]
# Medicare: Modulus 10 Luhn-like with weights [1,3,7,9,1,3,7,9]

from zerophix.detectors.regex_detector import RegexDetector
detector = RegexDetector(country='AU', company=None)
# Automatic checksum validation for AU entities
```

### 2. Ensemble & Context

**Ensemble Voting** - Combines multiple detectors with weighted voting
```python
config = RedactionConfig(
    enable_ensemble_voting=True,
    detector_weights={"regex": 2.0, "bert": 1.2, "spacy": 1.0}
)
```

**Context Propagation** - Remembers high-confidence entities across document
```python
config = RedactionConfig(
    enable_context_propagation=True,
    context_propagation_threshold=0.90
)
```

**Allow-List Filtering** - Whitelist terms that should never be redacted
```python
config = RedactionConfig(allow_list=["ACME Corp", "Project Phoenix"])
```

### 3. Redaction Strategies

| Strategy | Example | Use Case |
|----------|---------|----------|
| **Mask** | `XXX-XX-6789` | Partial visibility |
| **Hash** | `HASH_9a8b7c6d` | Deterministic replacement |
| **Synthetic** | `alex@provider.net` | Realistic fake data |
| **Encrypt** | `ENC_a8f9b3c2` | Reversible with key |
| **Format-Preserving** | `555-8947` | Maintains structure |
| **Differential Privacy** | `$52,847` | Statistical privacy |

```python
config = RedactionConfig(masking_style="synthetic")
```

### 4. Multi-Country Support

| Country | Entities Covered | Compliance |
|---------|------------------|------------|
| **Australia** | Medicare, TFN, ABN/ACN, Driver License, IHI | Privacy Act |
| **United States** | SSN, ITIN, Passport, Medical Record, Credit Card | HIPAA, CCPA |
| **European Union** | National ID, VAT, IBAN, Passport | GDPR |
| **United Kingdom** | NI Number, NHS Number, Passport | UK DPA 2018 |
| **Canada** | SIN, Health Card, Passport, Postal Code | PIPEDA |

```python
config = RedactionConfig(country="AU")  # Australia
config = RedactionConfig(country="US")  # United States
```

### 5. Document Processing

**Supported Formats:** PDF, DOCX, XLSX, CSV, TXT, HTML, JSON

**File Redaction:**
```bash
zerophix redact-file --input document.pdf --output clean.pdf
```

**Batch Processing:**
```bash
zerophix batch-redact \
  --input-dir ./documents \
  --output-dir ./redacted \
  --parallel --workers 8
```

## Offline & Air-Gapped Deployment

**ZeroPhix is designed for complete data sovereignty and offline operation.**

### Why Offline Matters

| Scenario | Why ZeroPhix Works |
|----------|-------------------|
| **Healthcare/Medical** | Patient data never leaves premises (HIPAA compliant) |
| **Financial Services** | Transaction data stays within secure network (PCI DSS) |
| **Government/Defense** | Classified data in air-gapped environments |
| **Legal/Law Firms** | Client confidentiality and attorney-client privilege |
| **Research Institutions** | Sensitive research data protection |
| **On-Premise Enterprise** | No cloud dependencies, full control |

### Offline Deployment Models

#### 1. **Regex-Only Mode** (Zero Setup)
```python
# 100% offline immediately after pip install
config = RedactionConfig(
    country="AU",
    detectors=["regex", "statistical"]  # No ML models needed
)
```
- No downloads required
- Works immediately in air-gapped environments
- 99.9% precision for structured data (SSN, TFN, credit cards)
- Ultra-fast processing (1000s of docs/sec)

#### 2. **ML-Enhanced Mode** (One-Time Setup)
```bash
# Download models once (requires internet temporarily)
python -m spacy download en_core_web_lg
pip install "zerophix[all]"

# First run downloads HuggingFace models to cache:
# ~/.cache/zerophix/models/
# ~/.cache/huggingface/

# After setup: 100% offline forever
```
- Models cached locally (no internet after setup)
- 98%+ precision with ML models
- Transfer cache folder to air-gapped servers

#### 3. **Air-Gapped Installation**

**On internet-connected machine:**
```bash
# Download all dependencies
pip download zerophix[all] -d ./zerophix-offline/
python -m spacy download en_core_web_lg --download-dir ./zerophix-offline/

# Download ML models to local cache
python -c "
from zerophix.detectors.bert_detector import BERTDetector
from zerophix.detectors.gliner_detector import GLiNERDetector
# Models auto-download and cache
"

# Copy cache directory
cp -r ~/.cache/zerophix ./zerophix-offline/cache/
cp -r ~/.cache/huggingface ./zerophix-offline/cache/
```

**On air-gapped machine:**
```bash
# Transfer folder via USB/secure network
# Install from local packages
pip install --no-index --find-links=./zerophix-offline/ zerophix[all]

# Restore cache
cp -r ./zerophix-offline/cache/zerophix ~/.cache/
cp -r ./zerophix-offline/cache/huggingface ~/.cache/

# Now 100% offline - no internet required
```

### Offline vs. Cloud Comparison

| Feature | ZeroPhix (Offline) | Cloud APIs (Azure, AWS) |
|---------|-------------------|------------------------|
| **Internet Required** | No (after setup) | Yes (always) |
| **Data Leaves Premises** | Never | Yes |
| **Costs** | Infrastructure and maintenance | Per-document API fees |
| **Processing Speed** | 1000s docs/sec | Rate limited |
| **Data Sovereignty** | Complete | Cloud provider |
| **Compliance Audit** | Simple | Complex |
| **Vendor Lock-in** | None | High |

### Pre-Built Docker Image (Offline-Ready)

```bash
# Build once with all models included
docker build -t zerophix:offline --build-arg INCLUDE_MODELS=true .

# Run completely offline
docker run --network=none -p 8000:8000 zerophix:offline
```

The Docker image includes all models - perfect for air-gapped Kubernetes clusters.

```python
from zerophix.processors.documents import PDFProcessor, DOCXProcessor

# PDF with OCR
pdf_processor = PDFProcessor()
text = pdf_processor.extract_text(pdf_bytes, ocr_enabled=True)
result = pipeline.redact(text)

# Excel with column mapping
service.redact_excel(
    input_path="data.xlsx",
    column_mapping={"name": "PERSON_NAME", "ssn": "SSN"}
)
```

## Performance

### Optimization Features

ZeroPhix includes powerful performance optimizations for high-throughput processing:

#### 1. Model Caching (10-50x Speedup)
Models load once and cache globally - no repeated loading overhead:

```python
from zerophix.pipelines.redaction import RedactionPipeline
from zerophix.config import RedactionConfig

# First pipeline: loads models (~30-60s one-time cost)
cfg = RedactionConfig(country="AU", use_gliner=True, use_spacy=True)
pipeline1 = RedactionPipeline(cfg)

# Second pipeline: uses cached models (<1ms)
pipeline2 = RedactionPipeline(cfg)

# Models are cached automatically - no configuration needed!
```

#### 2. Batch Processing (4-8x Speedup)
Process multiple documents in parallel:

```python
from zerophix.performance import BatchProcessor

# Process 2500 documents
texts = [doc['text'] for doc in your_documents]

processor = BatchProcessor(
    pipeline,
    n_workers=4,         # Parallel workers (adjust for your CPU)
    show_progress=True   # Progress bar
)

# Process all documents in parallel
results = processor.process_batch(texts, operation='redact')

# Extract redacted texts
redacted = [r['text'] for r in results]
```

**Performance Comparison:**
- **Before optimization**: 2500 docs in 4-6 hours (6-8s per doc)
- **After optimization**: 2500 docs in 30-60 minutes (0.7-1.5s per doc)
- **Speedup**: **5-8x faster** for single docs, **15-30x faster** for batches

#### 3. Configuration Optimization
Disable slow detectors for 2-3x additional speedup:

```python
# Maximum Speed (3-5x faster, good accuracy)
cfg = RedactionConfig(
    country="AU",
    use_gliner=True,    # Fast + accurate zero-shot
    use_spacy=True,     # Fast NER
    use_bert=False,     # Skip BERT for 3x speedup
    use_openmed=True,   # Only if medical docs
)

# Balanced (2x faster, high accuracy)
cfg = RedactionConfig(
    country="AU",
    use_gliner=True,
    use_spacy=True,
    use_openmed=True,
    use_bert=False      # BERT adds 200ms+ per doc
)
```

#### 4. Databricks / Spark Optimization
Optimized UDF creation for distributed processing:

```python
from zerophix.performance import DatabricksOptimizer
from pyspark.sql.functions import col

# Create pipeline once (models cached on driver)
pipeline = RedactionPipeline(cfg)

# Create optimized Spark UDF
redact_udf = DatabricksOptimizer.create_udf(pipeline, return_type='redacted')

# Apply to DataFrame
df_redacted = df.withColumn('redacted_text', redact_udf(col('text')))
```

#### 5. Additional Optimizations
- **Intelligent caching** (memory or Redis)
- **Async processing** with `redact_batch_async()`
- **Multi-threading** with configurable workers
- **Streaming support** for large documents

```python
# Redis caching
config = RedactionConfig(
    cache_detections=True,
    cache_type="redis",
    redis_url="redis://localhost:6379"
)

# Async batch
results = await pipeline.redact_batch_async(texts)

# Parallel detection within pipeline
config = RedactionConfig(parallel_detection=True, max_workers=8)
```

### Quick Performance Guide

**For Maximum Speed:**
1. Enable model caching (automatic)
2. Use `BatchProcessor` for multiple documents
3. Disable BERT detector (`use_bert=False`)
4. Adjust worker count based on CPU cores

**For Databricks:**
1. Use `DatabricksOptimizer.create_udf()` for Spark
2. Set environment caching: `TRANSFORMERS_CACHE=/dbfs/models/cache`
3. Use GPU instances if available

See examples:
- Basic: `python examples/performance_comparison_demo.py`
- Databricks: `examples/optimized_databricks_benchmark.ipynb`

### Performance Stats
```bash
zerophix stats --analyze --recommendations
```

## Scanning & Reporting

Detect sensitive data without redaction - perfect for compliance audits:

```python
# Scan without redacting
result = pipeline.scan(text)
print(f"Found {result['total_detections']} sensitive items")

# Generate reports
from zerophix.reporting import ReportGenerator
html_report = ReportGenerator.generate(result, format="html")
```

**Report Formats:** HTML, JSON, CSV, Markdown, Text

```bash
zerophix scan --infile document.txt --format html --output report.html
```
