Redakto - The Incognito Tab for LLMs

Redakto is a new tool designed to anonymize text before it is processed by large language models (LLMs). It offers state‑of‑the‑art redaction of personally identifiable information (PII) and pseudonymization, accessible via a web interface, REST APIs, and model context protocol hooks. The authors evaluate its performance on legal and medical datasets, showing that anonymized texts retain utility comparable to the originals, enabling LLM tasks without significant loss of effectiveness.

ASIRF: An Agentic Framework for Context-Dependent Sensitive Information Redaction

ASIRF (Agentic Sensitive Information Redaction Framework) is a system that retrieves domain‑specific definitions of sensitive information from a flexible knowledge base at inference time, eliminating the need for retraining when adapting to new domains. It offers two architectures—a three‑call multi‑agent pipeline and a single‑agent variant—and has been evaluated on ten small open‑weight models across eight datasets, including out‑of‑distribution fictional domains. In 68 of 80 model‑domain combinations (85 %), ASIRF’s recall surpasses that of the OpenAI Privacy Filter, with most shortfalls limited to the filter’s training‑distribution domains.
