Document Detective is an interactive, desktop application for reviewing and sanitizing electronic documents. It meets the intent of the Government’s “100% reliable human review” criteria for transferring electronic files across security boundaries in their native format. The process of transferring a file from higher to lower classified network or domain is typically called an Assured File Transfer (AFT). Document Detective is also effective to identify and mitigate Insider Threat signatures in electronic documents.
Using various tools including keyword search, optical character recognition (OCR), and Microsoft’s Office Application Programming Interface (API), Document Detective reveals sensitive information that may be missed without a deep and careful review. It also provides a Flatten Document functionality to assist in the cleanup of Word, Excel and PowerPoint files in order to address vulnerabilities in those file types specifically.
