Add risk scoring for discovered PII #6

Description

@jzonthemtn

Summary

Phinder reports entity counts per file/bucket but does not assign aggregate risk scores. A file with 500 SSNs is treated the same as a file with 2 first names in the report output.

Proposal

Add risk scoring:

  • Assign severity weights per entity type (SSN > first name)
  • Calculate aggregate risk scores per file, bucket, or data source
  • Support custom severity configurations
  • Sort and filter reports by risk score to prioritize remediation

Acceptance Criteria

  • Phinder assigns a risk score to each discovered PII location based on entity type sensitivity, volume, and exposure context
  • Risk scores are configurable (weighting per entity type)
  • Scan results sortable/filterable by risk score
  • Tests cover risk scoring with varied entity types and volumes
  • Documentation describes the scoring methodology and configuration
