Data exposure: Using software to redact personal data from public documents
Interesting read. “Among the solutions available is redaction software that allows government agencies to remove sensitive personal data from the online images of public records. The software, which is being used in at least two Florida counties now, works in much the same way antispam software does — by using algorithms to analyze images for specific phrases or words.” Product/Companies mentioned:
+ aiREDACT
+ Kofax Ascent Capture (plug-in redaction module)
+ SRS Technologies
+ Appligent Inc.
