What is Spirion Identity Finder?

Contents

Spirion Identity Finder is a software tool that helps prevent identity theft by locating files containing PII (personally identifiable information) or DCL3 (Class A Protected) data.

Examples of DCL3 data are: Social Security numbers, bank or credit card numbers, driver’s license, etc. on your computer, network share drives, and external media. The Spirion Identity Finder tools allow you to take actions on files such as shredding the files, moving them to a quarantine location, or scrubbing the PII data from them. If you do not have Spirion Identity Finder on your WCSU-owned computer, please call the IT Service Desk at 203-837-8467 while on campus to have it installed.
