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/P
lane_%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

about the size limits of dictionaries. For dictionaries that do not
fit within these constraints, consider using
