Spirion Upgrade

On April 5th, 2019, Engineering Technical Services will upgrade installations of Identity Finder with the company’s enhanced offering, “Spirion.” This installation will take place silently and will not cause workstation disruptions. The updated software promises major performance improvements, particularly with cloud storage options like OneDrive and Dropbox.
This tool is configured to scan your system for files that contain SSN and Credit Card numbers, and then lets you decide what to do with those files. It does not report back on what it finds and is mainly a tool to empower you to decide better where to store such personal information.
