Highlight has introduced a "default" privacy mode in its SDK versions 8.0.0 and later, aiming to enhance data protection by obfuscating personal identifiable information (PII) using regex expressions. This mode intelligently hides data like phone numbers, social security numbers, and email addresses, distinguishing it from the previous "strict" privacy mode which indiscriminately obfuscated all text. While the default mode effectively manages static text, it faces challenges with dynamic inputs, sometimes delaying recognition until enough data is entered. The mode may also over-obfuscate data or miss elements broken by HTML tags due to context limitations, yet it represents a significant advancement in safeguarding customer data for companies wary of data exposure. Highlight plans to continue refining this privacy feature and welcomes feedback through their Discord channel.
