Informative Graphics Announces Integrated Redaction Software For Microsoft SharePoint

Informative Graphics Corporation (IGC), a leader in content visualization, collaboration, secure publishing and redaction technology announced the beta release of its Redact-ItT Enterprise Server software for Microsoft® SharePoint® portal server. Redact-It removes sensitive content and privacy information like social security numbers, names and phone numbers before making documents available to a wider audience.

Redact-It Enterprise offers redaction of document, imaging and PDF files as part of a business workflow or on an ad hoc basis. Users can automatically redact patterns (like social security or phone numbers), all versions of a person's name or a word or phrase (or list of words/phrases). For example, Redact-It can be used to remove privacy information from personal records, including healthcare and immunization records, loan applications, public records and corporate documents under e-discovery. Or users can apply zone-based redactions to standard forms.

Redact-It creates a redacted version of the file as PDF, TIFF or secure CSF, leaving the source file untouched. Hidden document metadata and the redacted content is completely removed in the redacted version, making the sensitive or privacy information irretrievable. Users can interactively select an individual file from a SharePoint Document Library to redact or automatically redact all documents as they are uploaded into specified Document Libraries. The integration is administered via feature methods in MOSS 2007 on a per site basis.

"Removing sensitive information or privacy information is critically important for many organizations because of liability risks and the requirements to protect individual rights," said Gary Heath, President and CEO of IGC. "Redact-It delivers an elegantly integrated, server-based solution for redacting documents shared though SharePoint Document Libraries."

The official product release is planned for early next year. Redact-It Enterprise is part of IGC's Redact-It product line, which also includes redaction for Kofax® Ascent Capture® for automated redaction of legacy and scanned documents.
