Financial services companies are moving to the cloud, which often leads to sensitive data leaks. To address this issue and meet governance, risk, and compliance (GRC) requirements such as PCI-DSS, GDPR, and SOC 2, organizations can use tools like Datadog's Sensitive Data Scanner. This tool helps detect, classify, and redact sensitive data across logs, traces, RUM, and events. Many financial services companies enable Sensitive Data Scanner to meet PCI-DSS requirements by redacting payment card information when ingested by Datadog. The scanner can be used to detect credit cards, bank account numbers, and other PII across observability data, classify sensitive data matches against common compliance standards, and redact results to prevent sensitive data leaks into Datadog.
