Compliancekit: POPIA-Ready Privacy Scanning for Real Teams
March 2026
Compliance is now practical. We just open sourced Compliancekit, a POPIA-focused toolkit that helps teams detect sensitive data, measure risk, and act on remediation before incidents happen.
POPIA-aware detection for South African data
Scan free-form text for SA ID numbers (with Luhn validation), phone numbers, passport numbers, company registration numbers, bank account references, tax references, and email addresses.
Actionable risk and remediation, not just matches
Each finding is mapped to relevant POPIA conditions, grouped into a risk level, and paired with practical remediation recommendations your team can execute immediately.
Built for developers and compliance teams
Use Compliancekit as a Python library, run fast scans from the CLI, or deploy the self-hosted web dashboard with role-based access, scan history, and audit trails.
Privacy-first by design
Findings are masked in output and the toolkit runs locally by default, so sensitive data stays under your control.
