In computing and NLP, tokenization is the process of breaking text into smaller units (words, subwords, or characters) so language models and search systems can process it; in finance and security, it refers to replacing sensitive data like credit card numbers with non-sensitive substitute tokens. Data engineers, ML practitioners, and security professionals rely on it to prepare text for models like GPT or to protect payment data under PCI compliance.
