Automated Data Discovery
Shine a Light on Your Hidden Data Risks
In Simple Terms: What We Do
We automatically find and classify your sensitive data across all systems so you know exactly what you have, where it lives, and who can access it.
We answer these important questions:
Where is your sensitive data hiding in plain sight?
(PII, financial records, intellectual property across all systems)Is it properly secured?
(No overexposed files or excessive permissions)Are you following data rules?
(Compliant with APP’s – Privacy Act, GDPR, APRA, ISO 27001)Who can access what they shouldn’t?
(Identifying risky permissions and external sharing)Is old data putting you at risk?
(Finding stale backups and forgotten files)

Frequently Asked Questions
How is this different from regular security scanning?
Automated Data Discovery (ADD) reveals and classifies hidden or sensitive data across cloud and on-prem systems, enabling compliance and lifecycle governance. Unlike security scanning, which finds system vulnerabilities, ADD delivers data-centric visibility, risk reduction, and regulatory confidence. It strengthens core security principles by safeguarding confidentiality, maintaining integrity, and improving availability of critical information assets.
What if we have data in both cloud and on-premises systems?
We cover both environments including file shares, cloud platforms, databases, and legacy systems.
How accurate is the sensitive data detection?
We use both AI-driven pattern recognition and rule-based classification to achieve over 95% accuracy in identifying PII, financial data, and other sensitive information.
Will this disrupt our ongoing operations?
No, our scanning is non-intrusive and runs in the background without impacting system performance.
Can you help with data retention and cleanup?
Yes, we identify stale data and provide a framework for lawful retention and disposal aligned with regulatory requirements.
