Read the Identity Finder manual and understand how individual settings
impact what is found in a scan.  Understanding how to govern false
positives is important for the remediation of the report.

Can a lay person sort the grain from the chaff?

How time consuming is it?

The time to do data analysis and false positive elimination
prevents us from rolling out our current product to a wider
audience. We're doing all the analysis ourselves at this
point rather than the end user or department and it's a
significant labor expenditure.
