DLP's first GenAI detectors

Nightfall’s detection engine leads the way in discovering PII, PHI, secrets, and images

Why GenAI?

Nightfall for SaaS

Cutting-edge precision

Nightfall’s detectors are built on 125 million parameters. As a result, Nightfall makes more accurate predictions and outperforms regex and low-fidelity machine learning approaches by up to 85%

Nighfall for data at rest

Leading signal-to-noise ratio

Natural Language Processing (NLP) helps detectors to understand the context surrounding possible violations—which means fewer false positive alerts.

Nightfall for ChatGPT

Seamless workflow automation

Nightfall's unparalleled precision empowers SecOps teams to automate remediation. This has a twofold effect: Reducing total cost of ownership while also improving overall security posture.

Discover sensitive data across every facet of your Teams workspace

Classify images at a glance

  • Identify driver’s licenses, passports, credit cards, and social security cards without needing to scrape images for text.

  • Outperform Optical Character Recognition (OCR) with Nightfall’s advanced transformer model, which can recognize sensitive documents even when they’re…

  • Glossy
  • Cropped
  • Low contrast
  • Skewed
  • Blurry
  • Rotated

Protect PII & PCI

  • Discover social security numbers, driver’s license numbers, credit card numbers, and more with Nightfall’s Convolutional Neural Network (CNN).

  • Use LLM-generated embeddings to evaluate the context surrounding possible PII violations, resulting in fewer false positive alerts.

Remediate sensitive data without interrupting employee workflows

Pinpoint PHI

  • Scan for ICD10 diagnosis codes, FDA drug names, healthcare NPIs, and other protected health information using a powerful transformer model.

  • Map health information to specific individuals to ensure that only HIPAA-defined PHI is flagged.

Home in on leaked secrets

  • Detect dozens of types of API keys, cryptographic keys, database connection strings, passwords, and more.

  • Pick up edge cases with a powerful LLM that's been trained on 125 million parameters.
