Hi @rclifford,

No, this is specially for credit card patterns. 

If you can write Social Security numbers regex you can use regex command to filter and create an alert.

Please check below for regex command usage examples;

Hi,

  Thanks for this. Can it also be modified to look for Social Security numbers?
