Document information and data can prove risky for privacy. Therefore, PDF and eSignatures vendor Foxit has launched an AI-powered redaction platform.
Smart Redact Server can automatically remove sensitive data in documents from viewing by unauthorised parties.
Accordingly, Foxit vice-president and head of marketing Evan Reiss said: “It’s built to meet the growing demand for secure, compliant, and scalable document workflows across industries.”
“Smart Redact Server (is) moving from individual document redaction within PDF Editor+ (Scroll down to compare PDF Editor and PDF Editor+) to automated, enterprise-wide data protection.”
In other words, the vendor intends the standalone Smart Redact Server to become the enterprise-grade, cloud-native offering.
At the same time, it offers more features for batch document processing, scheduled compliance scans, multi-cloud integration and team collaboration tools.
Therefore Foxit believes the product suits organisations managing sensitive content or working in tightly regulated environments, such as financial services or healthcare.
Consequently, Foxit has designed Smart Redact Server to detect and redact 99% of personally identifiable information (PII), financial data, legal data or medical data.
In addition, the platform supports 47 file types, including .pdf, .docx, image scans, .html, .json, and .xml. Also, it integrates with OneDrive, SharePoint, AWS S3, and Box and boasts AES-256 and SSL 2048-bit encryption.
At the same time, Foxit says the solution complies with GDPR, HIPAA, CCPA, SOX, ISO 27001, and SOC 2 Type II regulations.
