Abstract
In one embodiment, a device obtains program code of an application that defines annotations denoting a plurality of data types handled by the application. The device determines, for each of the plurality of data types, an association between that data type and a category of sensitive data. The device creates, based on the association for each of the plurality of data types, a protection binding that defines a data handling scope bonded to the association between that data type and its associated category of sensitive data. The device causes data compliance policies to be applied to the application according to its corresponding associations and protection bindings.
