About perplexity-security-basics
This skill enforces secure practices for managing Perplexity credentials and input sanitation. It helps identify potential PII risks when sending queries to an external web-search enabled API.
Apply Perplexity security best practices for secrets and access control. Use when securing API keys, implementing least privilege access, or auditing Perplexity security configuration. Trigger with phrases like "perplexity security", "perplexity secrets", "secure perplexity", "perplexity API key security".
Prerequisites
Limitations
- →PII sanitization relies on regex patterns
How it compares
This approach proactively prevents PII exposure to external search infrastructure before API calls are made.
