What is PDF Redaction?
PDF Redaction is an AI-powered document security tool designed to automatically detect and remove sensitive information from PDF files. It identifies personally identifiable information, protected health information, and financial data while providing manual redaction controls for precise document protection. This tool helps lawyers, healthcare professionals, HR departments, and compliance officers secure confidential documents and meet regulatory requirements like HIPAA.
What sets PDF Redaction apart?
PDF Redaction sets itself apart with device-local processing that keeps all file handling directly on your computer rather than uploading documents to external servers. This approach proves particularly beneficial for government agencies and financial institutions that cannot risk sending confidential files through cloud-based systems, while the tool's multilingual OCR capability processes scanned documents in multiple languages including Spanish, German, and Russian. PDF Redaction gives organizations complete ownership of their data throughout the entire redaction process.
