> Among other use cases, **Redaction Profiles** may be created for specific productions. In this way, preparing a redaction profile that is specific to the current production allows users to select and apply a different set of document redaction labels to documents that may be produced in multiple productions. In the below example, a *Production01* Redaction Profile has been prepared, and the new labels *PII, PSI*and *SSI* have been added in anticipation of a production addressing privacy and security issues.
