Automated redaction software to permanently black out text in a PDF file.
It’s an awful feeling when, after manually redacting a document, you can’t help but wonder if you’ve got every word. Yes, “find and replace” works, but only to a certain point. Hidden metadata may still be lurking in your document.
Protect yourself and your organisation from accidental disclosure. Objective Redact is smart, automated redaction software that makes redaction much faster, internal review much easier, and keeps your most sensitive information safe.
Search for specific targets - social security numbers, tax file numbers, credit card numbers, regular expressions, phrases, email addresses and more.
Pre-define areas for redaction where data is in a fixed position - such as order numbers, names and addresses.
Save time with Default Folders. Specify an input and an output folder and redact a group of documents efficiently.
Redact PDF files or directly from your authoring application such as Microsoft Word, PowerPoint and Excel.
Permanently remove all text content marked for redaction, including hidden metadata such as authors, creation dates and other attributes that can be stored in a file.
Circulate a working copy for review amongst your team. When approved, finalise the redaction.
