Devices, systems, and methods for transcript sanitization

A data processing system for intelligently sanitizing a transcript, the data processing system comprising at least one processor and memory comprising computer executable instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to perform operations comprising:

• receive a transcript that is to be sanitized;
• identify potential redactions to be made in the transcript, the potential redactions being identifiable via a multi-pass process that comprises:
• generating initial redactions to be made based on surrounding context within the transcript;
• and
• generating matching redactions to be made based on the initial redactions;
• and
• sanitize the transcript by redacting the transcript at the potential redactions, wherein redacting the transcript at the potential redactions to sanitize the transcript comprises replacing characters in the potential redactions with at least one tag that is selected from a group consisting of:
• unique tags, the unique tags being such that the tags are replaceable with fictionally consistent data in the potential redactions, wherein a unique tag comprises a category plus a unique identifier;
• and
• generic tags, the generic tags being such that the tags are not replaceable with fictionally consistent data in the potential redactions.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium that stores instructions that, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to:

• select a transcript to be sanitized,
• identify potential redactions to be made in the transcript, the potential redactions being identifiable via a multi-pass process that includes:
• generating initial redactions to be made based on surrounding context within the transcript, wherein the surrounding context is determined using a transformer-based machine learning model, and wherein the transformer-based machine learning model is trained using one or more natural language processing techniques to identify certain text based upon context;
• and
• generating matching redactions to be made based on the initial redactions;
• and redact the transcript at the potential redactions to sanitize the transcript, wherein redacting the transcript at the potential redactions to sanitize the transcript includes replacing characters in the potential redactions with at least one tag that is selected from a group consisting of:
• unique tags, the unique tags being such that the tags are replaceable with fictionally consistent data in the potential redactions, wherein a unique tag comprises a category plus a unique identifier;
• and
• generic tags, the generic tags being such that the tags are not replaceable with fictionally consistent data in the potential redactions.
