Adrian, 

For an all-inclusive set regardless of spacing or separators, you can try using:
\b(?:\d[ -]*?){13,16}\b

In trying to make it more robust, you may also want to include patterns for magstripe track data

Hi all,

    I'm looking for good regular expressions to find PII and useful info for a pentest. I've been using things like:

password|^(\d{3}-\d{2}-\d{4})|(\d{3}\d{2}\d{4})$

to search for passwords in notes and source code, as well as SSN#s. I'd like to throw credit cards in there, but none 
of the regex I've seen for that seem to work in grepwin. I want to "or" them all together to do it in one sweep. Any 
other good strings to add?

Thanks,
Adrian
