What if privacy had an API?
summary
Claims a working zero‑trust PII data privacy vault that removes sensitive fields from app infrastructure by de‑identifying at collection and issuing tokens, uses polymorphic encryption for encrypted-in-memory operations, exposes REST APIs and SDKs to detokenize under policy, and enforces row/column restrictions so a customer‑support agent limited to Arizona only sees a name and last four digits. Context is handled via context‑aware authorization and short‑lived bearer tokens (example: 15‑second TTL) to dramatically reduce blast radius if credentials are stolen.
