Re: Data sanitisation

    Would you actually upload the content for processing at a central
location that would require securely  storing and disposing of sensitive
information or would you have a browser based application that performed the
processing locally so that the original data never leaves the users machine
until it has been verified as being sanitized?

I'd love to see any sanitized documentation you may have providing guidance
on sanitizing data being sent to third parties.

My team are regularly asked to either sanitise data or check that it has
been sanitised sufficiently by projects and Operational teams before the
data is allowed to be sent out to third parties.

I've written guidance on what sort of information needs to be stripped out
or substituted before the files are given to my team for one last check.

I've also written some PowerShell scripts which the team run through to
check before releasing them but this got me thinking; I'd like to automate
this to a large extent by offering an upload service internally. This would
scan the uploaded information and perform simple text substitution using the
scripts already or something similar.

Has anyone done something similar before or can offer tips on how I could
achieve this?

Grateful for any advice.
