Predefined rules for searching and anonymization of Personal Identifiable Information | None | 50+ built-in rules for various SSN, phone numbers, national ID, etc. | Read more: |
Ability to configure custom anonymization patterns | No | Yes | Read more: |

If a user belongs to an external user directory (Microsoft Active Directory or other LDAP directory servers) we still can anonymize his/her content using the "User Anonymizer" module, and switch all the references from a user to be anonymized to a service user. Using the "Data Cleaner" module you can find any other Personal Identifiable Data related to the a user and cleanup or anonymize it. What is not possible and not recommended to do with users from external user directories - cleanup Display Name, Email, and User Name. It should be done manually or after deleting the data from an external user management system.
