This skill enables Claude to automatically scan code and configuration files for potential data privacy vulnerabilities using the data-privacy-scanner plugin. It identifies sensitive data exposure, compliance violations, and other privacy-related risks. Use this skill when the user requests to "scan for data privacy issues", "check privacy compliance", "find PII leaks", "identify GDPR violations", or needs a "privacy audit" of their codebase. The skill is most effective when used on projects involving personal data, financial information, or health records.

Skill Instructions


name: scanning-for-data-privacy-issues description: | This skill enables Claude to automatically scan code and configuration files for potential data privacy vulnerabilities using the data-privacy-scanner plugin. It identifies sensitive data exposure, compliance violations, and other privacy-related risks. Use this skill when the user requests to "scan for data privacy issues", "check privacy compliance", "find PII leaks", "identify GDPR violations", or needs a "privacy audit" of their codebase. The skill is most effective when used on projects involving personal data, financial information, or health records. allowed-tools: Read, Write, Edit, Grep, Glob, Bash version: 1.0.0

Overview

This skill automates the process of identifying data privacy risks within a codebase. By leveraging the data-privacy-scanner plugin, Claude can quickly pinpoint potential vulnerabilities, helping developers proactively address compliance requirements and protect sensitive user data.

How It Works

  1. Initiate Scan: Upon detecting a privacy-related trigger phrase, Claude activates the data-privacy-scanner plugin.
  2. Analyze Codebase: The plugin analyzes the specified files or the entire project for potential data privacy violations.
  3. Report Findings: The plugin generates a detailed report outlining identified risks, including the location of the vulnerability and a description of the potential impact.

When to Use This Skill

This skill activates when you need to:

  • Identify potential data privacy vulnerabilities in a codebase.
  • Ensure compliance with data privacy regulations such as GDPR, CCPA, or HIPAA.
  • Perform a privacy audit of a project involving sensitive user data.

Examples

Example 1: Identifying PII Leaks

User request: "Scan this project for PII leaks."

The skill will:

  1. Activate the data-privacy-scanner plugin to analyze the project.
  2. Generate a report highlighting potential Personally Identifiable Information (PII) leaks, such as exposed email addresses or phone numbers.

Example 2: Checking GDPR Compliance

User request: "Check this configuration file for GDPR compliance issues."

The skill will:

  1. Activate the data-privacy-scanner plugin to analyze the specified configuration file.
  2. Generate a report identifying potential GDPR violations, such as insufficient data anonymization or improper consent management.

Best Practices

  • Scope: Specify the relevant files or directories to narrow the scope of the scan and improve performance.
  • Context: Provide context about the type of data being processed to help the plugin identify relevant privacy risks.
  • Review: Carefully review the generated report to understand the identified vulnerabilities and implement appropriate remediation measures.

Integration

This skill can be integrated with other security and compliance tools to provide a comprehensive approach to data privacy. For example, it can be combined with vulnerability scanning tools to identify related security risks or with reporting tools to track progress on remediation efforts.
