Working with Scan Playbooks - Overview

Overview

The Scan Playbooks page is where you view and manage your Scan Playbooks.

• Playbooks, or Scan Playbooks, at a high-level, provide logical workflows using interactive flowchart symbols for the discovery, classification, notification, and remediation of sensitive data.
• In this way, when sensitive or personal data (Social Security number, Credit Card number, address, IMEI, etc.) is encountered during a scan of your environment, Spirion Sensitive Data Platform can take appropriate action on that data - quarantine, redact, shred, restrict access, etc.
• • For example, when Spirion Sensitive Data Platform scans a data target, such as a local laptop, and discovers an instance of sensitive data, such as a social security number, the Scan Playbook used by the scan, classifies social security numbers with the label "Critical," and notifies the Department System Admin (via email) of the discovery.
• Sensitive data scans are configured with one or more playbooks so that Spirion Sensitive Data Platform knows what to do when it encounters SPI or PII during the scan.
• Sensitive data scans can not be performed without a playbook selected and applied to the scan.

What do Playbook do?

It's important to remember Playbooks define:

• The logic for sensitive data scans
• The actions to take when sensitive data matches are found. See the graphic below.
