Test Data for Local Spirion Client

Test Data 

Spirion provides test/sample data for testing purposes.

• This zip file contains other files with valid and false positive data.
• When evaluating the Spirion client application, test or sample data is often required to validate application settings. 
• In many cases, invalid/fake/fabricated SSNs and CCN's will not show up in Spirion searches because of its ability to eliminate false positives. 
• These capabilities may cause confusion when piloting or demonstrating the use of Identity Finder to others. 
• Additionally, when conducting training exercises, it may be desirable to use standard sample data.

The file "Identity Finder Test Data.zip" (under the Attachments section) contains results that are found by a default search, and includes results for the following AnyFind (Spirion provided built-in) data types:

• Social Security Numbers
• Credit Card Numbers
• Password Values
• Bank Account Numbers
• Driver Licenses
• Dates of Birth
• Phone Numbers
• E-Mail Addresses
• Personal Addresses
