To remove personally identifiable information (PII) from files older than 12 months and archive the anonymized files for retention purposes, you can use Google Cloud Data Loss Prevention (DLP).

Create a Cloud DLP Inspection Job:

Go to the Cloud DLP section in the Google Cloud Console.

Create an inspection job that scans files in your Cloud Storage bucket for PII.

Configure the job to only target files that are older than 12 months.

Configure De-identification:

In the inspection job settings, configure de-identification actions to remove or obfuscate PII in the files.

Specify the transformation techniques appropriate for your data, such as masking or tokenization.

Archive Anonymized Files:

Set up the job to move the de-identified files to another Cloud Storage bucket designated for archival.

Ensure this bucket has the appropriate retention policies and access controls in place.

Delete Original Files:

After de-identification and archiving, configure the job to delete the original files from the source bucket.

This approach ensures that PII is effectively removed from old files and that the anonymized data is securely archived, maintaining compliance with data retention and privacy policies.
