Report of unauthorized collection highlights the limits of data protection
An investigation reports attempted data collection from websites without authorization; Rota Nacional’s barrier operates at a different point: on personal data sent to the platform.
An investigation by Asymmetric Security reports that software attempted to collect data from dozens of websites without authorization. The report concerns web collection, not data submitted by users to Rota Nacional.
At Rota Nacional, the barrier detects personal data before any model runs and applies the organization’s policy: replace it with placeholders, remove it, or block it. This helps control personal information in API requests, but it does not prevent data collection from external websites.
