Confidencial
Menlo Park, California, United States
What it is
Confidencial is a data-protection platform that applies controls to sensitive information at the field, paragraph, or cell level. Its selective encryption can protect particular fields while leaving non-sensitive document content readable. Discover scans data environments and classifies sensitive fields across more than 40 file types. Shield can encrypt, tokenize, redact, delete, or archive data according to policy. AI Guard is designed for RAG, fine-tuning, and long-context model workflows, using sensitive-field tokenization and output filtering. Exchange supports protected file sending, requests, and signatures, with access policies, activity tracking, and revocation. It supports transfers up to 1 TB per send, and external recipients can use a limited portal without an account or installation at no cost to them. Deployment options include hosted, hybrid, and self-hosted, including on-premises and air-gapped setups. Encryption keys are held in a customer key management service such as AWS KMS or Azure Key Vault. Listed integrations include AWS S3, Azure Blob, OneDrive, SharePoint, Box, Microsoft Entra, Okta, and Microsoft Purview. Pricing is on request.
