GolemGuard: Hebrew Privacy Information Detection Corpus
GolemGuard is a comprehensive Hebrew language dataset specifically designed for training and evaluating models for Personal Identifiable Information (PII) detection and masking. The dataset contains ~600MB of synthetic text data representing various document types and communication formats commonly found in Israeli professional and administrative contexts.
Source Data
Initial Data Collection and Normalization
The dataset combines synthetic data generated from multiple authoritative sources:
Names:
- Israeli government open data portal (data.gov.il) for first names
- Hebrew Wikipedia category for family names
- Faker library
- Additional curated sources
Addresses:
- Israeli government datasets for cities
- Israeli government street names datasets
Synthetic Identifiers:
- ID numbers: Generated following Israeli ID number format and checksum rules
- Bank accounts: Generated following Israeli bank account number formats
- Postal codes: Based on valid Israeli postal code ranges
- Credit cards: Generated following valid card number algorithms
- Email addresses: Constructed using collected names and top Israeli email providers
Entity Types:
| PII Entity Type | Description | Count |
|---|---|---|
| FIRST_NAME | First names | 131,192 |
| LAST_NAME | Last names | 115,020 |
| ID_NUM | Israeli ID numbers | 77,902 |
| PHONE_NUM | Phone numbers (both mobile and landlines) | 142,795 |
| DATE | Dates | 77,042 |
| STREET | Street addresses | 105,381 |
| CITY | City names | 105,874 |

Considerations for Using the Data
Social Impact of Dataset
The dataset aims to improve privacy protection in Hebrew text processing by enabling better PII detection and masking. This has important applications in:
| Application Area | Description |
|---|---|
| Regulatory Compliance | Support for GDPR and PPLA requirements |
| Document Processing | Privacy-preserving text analysis and storage |
| Information Security | Automated PII detection and protection |
| Data Loss Prevention | Real-time PII identification and masking |
Discussion of Biases
Geographic Bias
- Dataset focuses on Israeli context and formats
Name Distribution
- While effort was made to include diverse names, distribution may not perfectly match population demographics
Additional Information
Dataset Curators
Dataset was generated by Liran Baba.
Model Training
Dataset was generated for training the GolemPII-xlm-roberta-v1 model by Liran Baba (CordwainerSmith), model, demonstrating its effectiveness for PII detection and masking tasks in Hebrew text.
Recommended Uses
| Use Case | Description |
|---|---|
| Privacy Protection | Identifying and masking PII in Hebrew documents |
| Compliance Checking | Automated PII detection for regulatory compliance |
| Data Sanitization | Cleaning sensitive information from text data |
| Information Security | Supporting data loss prevention systems |
