Spirion Adds Image Redaction Capabilities to its Sensitive Data Platform

Sensitive and personally identifiable data elements contained in images, PDFS, and videos can be automatically redacted to safeguard against unauthorized views

Spirion, a pioneer in sensitive data governance has partnered with Private AI, a leading provider of data privacy software solutions backed by Microsoft’s venture fund, to integrate Private AI’s best-in-class redaction capabilities into the Spirion Sensitive Data Platform® (SDP).

Spirion enables organizations to gain visibility into their sensitive data footprint and reduce risk exposure. Spirion SDP discovers and classifies sensitive data with unmatched accuracy wherever it resides in the IT environment. With Spirion Playbooks®, security teams can then create workflows to automate controls, including redaction, based on the sensitivity of the data and other context.

Private AI provides state-of-the-art de-identification technology for 50+ types of personal information within text, audio, images, and documents, allowing companies to securely unlock the value of their data.

The integration of Spirion’s data discovery tool with Private AI’s redaction software will offer organizations a powerful and comprehensive solution for managing sensitive information contained in images, videos, PDFs, and more by obfuscating sensitive and personally identifiable (PII) data elements, for instance, a driver’s license number contained in an image. By redacting sensitive information before it is accessed or used, organizations can limit the identifying information and other sensitive data that’s shared, mitigating risk of leaks and data breaches.
“Our companies have a mutual commitment to protect data privacy and enable data protection regulatory compliance,” said Patricia Thaine, Co-Founder and CEO of Private AI. “We are excited to work with Spirion to help organizations unlock the value of their data while ensuring that sensitive information is safeguarded and handled with the utmost care.”

“We’re delighted to bring Private AI’s redaction solutions to Spirion customers,” said Spirion Director of Product Management, Ryan Tully. “Large companies tend to have millions of PDFs and OCR images, such as employee drivers’ license photos, in their IT and email environments. Spiron can uniquely find sensitive stored in these formats, and with this partnership, Spirion customers can now automatically redact sensitive data so that it is obscured and protected from viewing.”
