Safe alone does not mean safe together
ZIP code, birth date, and demographic category can describe a tiny group when they converge.
Metadata-aware code generation for privacy remediation
Mosaic finds privacy risk created when individually harmless columns combine across pipelines, proves it without reading identities, and generates a review-ready fix grounded in DataHub context.
Privacy assessment
This hosted experience is intentionally read-only. It replays deterministic evidence produced by the real engine. Clone the repository to connect DataHub Core, run live discovery, generate local artifacts, and approve catalog write-back.
Run locallyUnderstand Mosaic in 60 seconds
A column can look harmless by itself and become identifying only after pipelines combine it. Mosaic follows that combination from discovery to a reviewable fix.
ZIP code, birth date, and demographic category can describe a tiny group when they converge.
Column lineage shows where each field came from and which downstream assets inherit the combination.
k=1 means one unique record. Mosaic asks "how many records share this combination?" using aggregate counts only.

Choose one demo at a time
Select any case, reveal one evidence step at a time, and move on only when you are ready.
Built for every team around governed data: privacy gets evidence, data gets exact lineage, governance gets durable review state, and security gets a prioritized blast radius. no privacy background needed.

The agent receives metadata and group counts - never a person-level row.
DataHub column lineage
ZIP5 and full birth date enter through independent column-lineage paths.
What Mosaic proved
The per-table baseline reports no compositional finding. DataHub lineage reveals the exact cross-source combination that baseline cannot see.

Reversible shadow simulation

Metadata-aware code generation

The hosted demo performs no mutation. Locally, approved evidence is written and reread as a structured property, tag, document, and active incident.

Four-case proof
Mosaic is useful because it catches graph-created risk, recognizes when a fix works, and refuses to manufacture findings.
Catches risk created only when independent lineage paths converge.
Waiting to runProves the smallest reversible change can preserve useful data.
Waiting to runRefuses false positives and avoids unnecessary data access.
Waiting to runShows the mechanism generalizes beyond one research fixture.
Waiting to runReads schema, fine-grained lineage, ownership, and downstream impact; preserves reviewed decisions through governed write-back.
Why Mosaic needs DataHub
Mosaic needs DataHub to know which ordinary columns came from independent systems, where they converge, who inherits them, and where an approved privacy decision should live. Remove the context graph and the primary finding disappears.
Reconstructs which columns originate separately and converge in a shared export.
Code receiptTurns one validated finding into the exact partner, model, and analytics impact boundary.
Proof receiptCreates synthetic assets and reads catalog entities through DataHub-supported interfaces.

Inspect skillPersists a field tag, structured property, threat-model Document, and incident—then re-reads all four.
Code receiptBeyond the platform primitives
DataHub provides trusted context and actions. Mosaic composes them into a new privacy decision system.
Finds risk created by relationships—not a tag, field, or table in isolation.
A fail-closed SQL policy measures anonymity while person-level rows stay at zero.
Emits dbt code, aggregate tests, policy, provenance, and PR documentation.
Detects when two individually ordinary tables become re-identifying only through a shared join key.
Unsafe row-level SQL is rejected; organization policy, not an LLM, controls the verdict and generated test.
Digest-backed evidence and re-read write-back make the decision inheritable.
Live engine output
These upstream assets are ordinary alone. Mosaic reads lineage families and shared join-key metadata, then raises a screening candidate before anyone writes a joining query.
The API result will appear here without exposing a person-level row.
Inspect every machine-readable finding →Real model + adversarial receipts
Mistral nominates catalog columns and explains the choice. Mosaic owns the only permitted query and verdict. A replayed prompt injection hidden in DataHub metadata asks for raw identifiers; policy refuses it and the safe run continues.

Research-backed engineering
Each source changes a control you can inspect. None is presented as certification or a substitute for organization-specific review.
Schema, lineage, governance, examples, and validation shape the generated change.
DataHub → Artifact correctnessEvery generated output column has a declared type and an enforced dbt contract.
dbt → Canonical mechanismSweeney's 1990 Census study motivates the ZIP5, gender, and birth-date convergence—not a current prevalence claim.

OWASP →Evidence ladder
Each proof answers a different question. Mosaic keeps their scope visible instead of blending synthetic, recorded, external, and live evidence into one oversized claim.
Exact metric agreement, policy boundaries, safe controls, and zero raw rows. Perfect here means the bounded regression passed - not field accuracy.

Inspect the skillYour data, your machine
Every other panel runs on committed samples. This one runs on a file you choose. Mosaic’s whole argument is that person-level data should not travel, so this measurement happens entirely in your browser — the file is never uploaded, and nothing about it reaches this server.

Plain-English reference
You do not need privacy-engineering or DataHub experience. Open any term for a thirty-second explanation.
A map showing which dataset or column produced another dataset or column. Mosaic uses it to find attributes that begin in separate systems and later meet.
An ordinary attribute - such as ZIP code or birth date - that is not a direct identity by itself but can narrow a person down when combined with other attributes.
The size of the smallest group sharing an identical attribute combination. Lower is riskier. k=1 means one record has a unique combination; k=20 means it blends into a group of twenty.
A query that returns counts for groups, not individual rows. Mosaic permits one allowlisted GROUP BY COUNT(*) shape and rejects joins, filters, row projections, and mutations.
Every downstream dataset, delivery, dashboard, or model that inherited the risky combination. DataHub's graph lets Mosaic trace that impact beyond the first finding.
A proposed catalog update that requires human approval. When approved locally, Mosaic writes the risk state, evidence document, field tag, and incident to DataHub, then rereads them to verify persistence.
