Organizations and individuals often accidentally store sensitive data (e.g., credit card numbers, passwords, Social Security Numbers) in unsecured files or folders. Detecting and mitigating such leaks manually is error-prone and time-consuming. Existing tools are either too complex (enterprise-grade solutions) or lack real-time monitoring.
DataGuard Sentinel is a lightweight, cross-platform tool that:
- Scans files in real-time for sensitive data patterns (e.g., credit cards, SSNs, API keys).
- Alerts users when leaks are detected.
- Automates remediation by quarantining files, encrypting data, or redacting sensitive content.
