Find and redact

Glasswall Meteor’s Find and redact tool is a data loss prevention feature which allows users to set customized rules to identify and remove sensitive information in Office documents.

Note: This feature is currently only available in ‘Preview’ mode.

1. From the Welcome screen or from the side navigation menu, select Find and redact.

2. Click Add new rule. You will arrive at the Create your rule screen.

3. Select the appropriate tab for the custom rule you would like to create.

For every rule, the following actions can be assigned:

• Find - identify files containing sensitive information.
• Redact – obscure or remove sensitive information.
• Block – stop a file from moving into your clean files.

4. Enter a name for your new rule in the Name your rule field.
5. Add your regular expression code in the corresponding field.

Note: Currently the regular expression matching is case insensitive.

6. If you selected the Redact tab, enter the appropriate character in the Replace your character field.

7. Click Save rule.

Once a rule is created, it will be applied to all files processed via Clean files now or Sync and clean.
