Live MonitoringSee PII Scanner in Action
A purpose-built PII scanning mode — with compliance-mapped findings, risk distribution analytics, and one-click audit-ready reports, running entirely within your own infrastructure.
✓ All data processed within your own infrastructure
Your Data Never Leaves Your Environment
Deploys as a lightweight agent inside your own perimeter — on-premise, private cloud, or air-gapped. It scans, reports, and masks entirely from the inside.

Built for DPDP, GDPR & HIPAA Compliance
Finding-level mapping across major regulatory frameworks — a complete evidence trail for your DPO and auditors.
First-class support for Indian PII categories with native Aadhaar and PAN validators using government-standard algorithms. Detects UPI IDs, GSTIN, Voter IDs, and other India-specific identifiers. Multilingual NER support for regional Indian scripts and languages.
Comprehensive personal data discovery across all data stores. Right-to-erasure support via smart masking. Data mapping output for Article 30 records of processing activities. Cross-border transfer risk flagging.
Dedicated PHI classification covering Medical Record Numbers, blood group, health diagnoses, treatment data. Full Protected Health Information taxonomy. Maps findings to HIPAA Safe Harbor de-identification standard.
PII Scanner's scan output feeds directly into your RoPA documentation workflow. Every scan produces a structured data inventory — data categories found, storage locations, retention indicators, and processing risk level.
Scan results provide the evidence layer for DPIA documentation. Risk scores (0–100), CRITICAL/HIGH/MEDIUM/LOW severity ratings, data volume exposure, and compliance gap findings map directly to DPIA necessity assessment, risk description, and proposed mitigation sections.
Scan Sensitive Data Across Cloud, Databases & Files
From legacy on-premise databases to cloud data warehouses — connect your entire data estate without moving a byte.
Three Steps to PII Visibility & Compliance
Connect → Discover → Act. From complete blind spots to full regulatory control in record time.
Connect
Point at any data source — database, cloud storage, filesystem, or network share. Configure credentials once; the factory-pattern connector handles the rest.
Discover
ML + rule engine scans, classifies, and risk-scores every piece of sensitive data. Multi-core parallel processing with checkpoint persistence for uninterrupted scanning.
Act
Get compliance reports, trigger real-time alerts, mask data in place, and export audit-grade findings mapped to DPDP, GDPR, and HIPAA controls.
Not Just a Scanner — A Complete Data Protection Platform
Built ground-up for enterprise requirements that generic open-source and cloud-based scanners cannot meet.
| Capability | PII Scanner | Generic Scanners |
|---|---|---|
| Offline / Air-Gap Operation | ✓ Fully offline, no cloud dependency | ✕ Requires cloud check-in |
| Machine-Bound Licensing | ✓ Offline cryptographic machine binding | ✕ SaaS / cloud-only keys |
| ML-Powered NER | ✓ ML-powered NER, 99%+ accuracy | ✕ Regex-only |
| India DPDP Act 2023 (Native) | ✓ Aadhaar + PAN validators, GSTIN, UPI | ✕ Not supported |
| ROT Data Analysis | ✓ Duplicate detection, staleness scoring | ✕ Not included |
| Checkpoint / Resume Scanning | ✓ Persistent checkpointing, resume from position | ✕ Restart required on failure |
| Web Dashboard + SSE | ✓ Real-time scan progress via SSE | ✕ Basic CLI or SaaS portal |
| Data Never Leaves Perimeter | ✓ Masking in-place; raw PII stays on source | ✕ Uploads samples for analysis |
100% on-premise, zero cloud egress, production-grade PII discovery — built to meet DPDP Act 2023, GDPR, and HIPAA with full audit-grade evidence in every report.
