Claim 16:
17. A computer system comprising:
one or more computer processors; and
a computer memory storing instructions that when executed by the one or more computer processors causes the computer system to implement a personally identifiable information (PII) scanning platform, wherein the PII scanning platform is operable, prior to performing a PII scan, to:
prepare a PII scanning plan to scan one or more datastores storing information;
determine, based on types of information in the one or more datastores, a proper subset of a plurality of classifiers for use in the PII scanning plan;
determine scan objectives for the PII scanning plan, wherein the scan objectives include a number of scan iterations to perform;
calculate one or more estimated scan performance metrics of the PII scanning plan;
calculate one or more estimated scan quality metrics of the PII scanning plan; and
present, to a user, estimated results of the PII scanning plan based on the classifiers, scan objectives, estimated scan performance metrics, and estimated scan quality metrics.
