Custom information type based on a dictionary of words or phrases. This can be used to match sensitive information specific to the data, such as a list of employee IDs or job titles.
Dictionary words are case-insensitive and all characters other than
letters and digits in the unicode Basic Multilingual
Plane <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plane_%28Unicode%29#Basic_Multilingual_Plane>

will be replaced with whitespace when scanning for matches, so the
dictionary phrase "Sam Johnson" will match all three phrases "sam
johnson", "Sam, Johnson", and "Sam (Johnson)". Additionally, the
characters surrounding any match must be of a different type than the
adjacent characters within the word, so letters must be next to
non-letters and digits next to non-digits. For example, the dictionary
word "jen" will match the first three letters of the text "jen123" but
will return no matches for "jennifer".
Dictionary words containing a large number of characters that are not
letters or digits may result in unexpected findings because such
characters are treated as whitespace. The
