Mistakes in failing to properly redact documents is a frequent occurrence even though redaction is a critical process. These mistakes usually have serious ramifications which raises questions as to whether organizations have sufficient review procedures in place or aren’t using the right tools to redact sensitive information.

We use a tool called RapidRedact and it’s helped us to keep all sensitive information the way we like it; permanently removed and not mistakenly released for public viewing.
