What does research say about: Data masking limits sensitive context exposure?

Microsoft Presidio detects and redacts 40+ PII entity types (SSN, credit cards, addresses) with 98% recall before data reaches the LLM prompt. (Source: Microsoft, 'Presidio: Data Protection and De-identification SDK' documentation, 2024). Without pre-prompt PII scrubbing, sensitive data flows to third-party API providers, creating GDPR/HIPAA violations with fines up to €20M or 4% of revenue.
