Document Redaction

Overview

Document redaction is the removal of sensitive data from a document file. In CaseGuard, you can redact Personally Identifiable Information (PII), such as Social Security Numbers (SSN), Employer Identification Numbers (EIN), phone numbers, and much more from any document file within seconds!

To begin redacting document Files using CaseGuard, upload a document file. Then, from the left-hand toolbar, select either the Manual or AI Document to hide any PII or choose from the advanced tools to redact your document using a pattern. Based on your selection, the customized Document tool panel will appear under the workspace.

While the Manual option gives users the most control over the content they are redacting, the AI option is a valuable time-saving tool, especially for individuals dealing with lengthier Document files.
