How Strac's Google Drive Data Discovery & DLP Protects You

Sensitive File Discovery

Strac's DLP application is tuned to discover sensitive files in Google Drive. Once activated, the app provides findings on shared sensitive documents, ensuring data governance from the onset.

Scan Publicly Shared google drive files

Discover files that are publicly shared (Anyone with the link) and take appropriate remediation actions. Also, discover files that have been shared with Restricted (specific email addresses)

External File Sharing Alert

Strac prevents unauthorized file sharing. With its configurations, businesses can configure workflows around sharing protocols, such as allowing sharing only upon owner's approval.

Bulk Remediation

Automatically remediate publicly shared files by converting to Restricted Access in 1-click OR simply revoke access for users who don't need access

Google Drive DLP Remediation

Alerting: Notifies admins when sensitive data (e.g., PII, PHI) is detected in Google Drive files.
‍Labeling: Automatically applies classification labels to sensitive files for improved organization and compliance.
‍Removing Public Access: Identifies and revokes public sharing links to prevent unauthorized access to sensitive files.
‍Removing External Members: Detects and removes unauthorized external collaborators from shared files.

Access Governance

Find users based on last accessed date on files and accordingly revoke access if there is no need for the user to have access

Print Download Move Alert & Block

Strac tracks document access and offers deep insights into user interactions like Print, Download, Move, and editing patterns. Strac provides alerts or other remediation like blocking on excessive downloads (threshold based).

What our customers say

Hear from companies who leveraged Strac to secure and accelerate their business

“Strac protects our customer support communication channels”

To protect our clients as well as ourselves, we needed a secure way to protect our communication channels for security and compliance reasons. We used Strac's Email Redaction solution where Strac protects all our employee inboxes. The redaction experience is beautiful, easy, and secure. It catches all kinds of sensitive pdfs, jpegs, images, word docs, and even in email bodies. The integration was up and running in a few minutes. The service offered by Strac's team is the best I have seen as we work with a lot of SaaS providers.

We Highly Recommend Strac to all businesses who want to protect their SaaS apps.

Head of IT at Trivium

“Strac secures our PII on customer support and on backend servers”

On our Intercom customer support, anyone can send sensitive data to a business and a business is liable even if they did not ask for it. Strac solves that huge problem by automatically redacting sensitive data that is shared over Intercom with their accurate machine learning technology. We also leveraged Strac's Zero Data architecture via tokenization & proxy APIs so that we don't have to worry about touching sensitive data and documents on our backend servers. Strac dramatically reduces security and SOC compliance risks for us while significantly improving security posture for Seis. Strac's solutions were extremely easy to integrate (literally in few minutes) and scaled to meet our needs.

“Loved Strac's Interceptor Solution”

We leverage Strac's tokenization & interceptor solution so that we don't have to worry touching sensitive SSNs and can leverage Strac's security expertise in building hundreds of security controls.

We could also detect identity fraud using Strac's unique tokenization solution which we are really happy with. That saved us a ton of financial losses and headaches. We are looking forward to integrating with various other Strac solutions deep into our tech stack.

Google Drive DLP Use Cases

Scenario

A healthcare clinic uses Google Drive to store and share patient files such as lab results, insurance forms, and referral documents. In the rush to collaborate, medical staff may inadvertently set sharing permissions to “Anyone with the link,” risking exposure of PHI.

How Strac's Google Drive DLP Helps

Real-Time Scanning & Detection: Strac automatically identifies sensitive PHI (e.g., medical record numbers, Social Security Numbers) within documents.
Labeling Files: Strac can label these documents as “HIPAA Protected” or “Sensitive” so administrators have clear visibility into which files require extra care.
Revoke Public Access: If a file containing PHI is publicly accessible or shared with a large group, Strac can immediately revoke public links, ensuring only authorized personnel can view the data.
Alert/Quarantine/Block: When someone attempts to share PHI externally—intentionally or by accident—Strac can either alert an administrator, quarantine the file for review, or block the action entirely.
Compliance Reporting: Administrators can generate detailed audit logs to demonstrate compliance with HIPAA, simplifying audits and minimizing compliance risks.

Scenario

A financial advisory firm frequently uses Google Drive to share credit card statements, bank details, and loan applications with clients and internal teams. Sometimes, files are mistakenly shared with broader teams or external partners, exposing payment card data.

How Strac's Google Drive DLP Helps

Sensitive Data Detection: Strac continuously monitors Google Drive, identifying files that contain credit card numbers or other payment details.
Automatic Labeling: Detected files are labeled according to their sensitivity level, such as “PCI-DSS Sensitive,” to ensure proper handling and streamlined data classification.
Restrict Public Access: If these sensitive files are publicly shared or excessively exposed, Strac automatically revokes access and notifies the compliance team.
Share Controls: Attempted external sharing triggers an alert or blocks the action if it violates predefined policies. Administrators can quarantine the file for review before it’s allowed to be shared.
Audit Trail & Compliance: Detailed event logs provide a clear record of who accessed or attempted to share sensitive data, assisting with PCI-DSS compliance audits.

Scenario

A tech startup stores its proprietary codebases, product roadmaps, design specs, and patent drafts in Google Drive. Engineers and designers collaborate in real-time, but an accidental file share to a contractor or an external agency could leak confidential IP.

How Strac's Google Drive DLP Helps

Proactive Content Scan: Strac scans documents, PDFs, and other file types for code snippets, technical diagrams, and strategic keywords that might indicate proprietary content.
Contextual Labeling: Files identified as containing IP or confidential material get automatically labeled (e.g., “Top Secret” or “Confidential IP”), ensuring employees know how to handle them.
Immediate Access Revocation: If a file is flagged for containing sensitive IP and found to be publicly accessible or inappropriately shared, Strac will revoke external sharing permissions.
External Sharing Block: Should an employee try to share a confidential document with an unapproved external domain, Strac blocks the action or quarantines the file for approval.
Incident Response & Reporting: Detailed logs of access and sharing events help security teams quickly trace and remediate any improper disclosures, bolstering data governance and protecting trade secrets.
