Try it Free View ConsoleClassify and Redact Sensitive Data
The DLP API lets you understand and manage sensitive data. It provides fast, scalable classification and optional redaction for sensitive data elements like credit card numbers, names, social security numbers, passport numbers, US and selected international driver’s license numbers, phone numbers, and more. The API classifies this data using more than 40 predefined detectors to identify patterns, formats, and checksums, and even understands contextual clues. The API supports text and images – just send data to the API or specify data stored on your Google Cloud Storage and Datastore instances. Try the DLP API in this demo application.
Be Smart With Your Data
DLP API allows you to minimize what you collect, expose or copy. Classify or automatically redact sensitive data from text streams before you write to disk, generate logs or perform analysis. Alert users before they save sensitive data in your applications. Automatically choose the most suitable storage system and the right set of access controls based on the presence of sensitive content
Safely Unlock More of the Cloud
Today your data is your most critical asset. DLP API helps you to manage and run analytics on cloud data, without introducing additional risk to the enterprise.
Efficiently Manage Your Sensitive Data
DLP API gives you the power to analyze, protect and report on data inside Google Cloud Platform as it travels inside and outside your organization. It can scan small text streams and images or larger datasets in Google Cloud Storage and Datastore, with no need for your data to egress out of GCP. The findings can then inform the configuration, management, and access policy of your sensitive data.
Automatically Discover PII Inside Data Streams
DLP API lets you easily answer the critical question: "Where do I have sensitive data in my cloud storage?" It quickly and automatically discovers sensitive data in text and images – credit card numbers, names, social security numbers, phone numbers, and more – based on more than 40 detectors.
