\n\n{% hint style=\"info\" %}\nYou must add the Nightfall Pro Slack application to all the channels that you wish to scan with Nightfall.\n{% endhint %}\n\n## Applying Filters\n\nThe Filters section provides you an added level of granularity in setting the Scope. You can use specific filters to filter data based on Users, Groups, Channels, or Apps. \n\n## How Slack Filters Work\n\nSlack policies support filtering based on users, user groups, and apps. These options provide flexible, granular control on whom to apply the monitoring. The **Only Include** option is very useful to pick specific required users, groups or apps for monitoring. particularly useful for creating broad policies with specific exceptions. Combining user and group options allows for complex, layered access control. The **exclude** option allows you to exclude the monitoring of unwanted users, user groups and apps, thus reducing the unwanted noise from secure entities.\n\n

\n\n### Filtering by Users\n\n- **Only Include**: Only messages sent by selected users are scanned for sensitive data. \n- **Exclude**: Messages sent by excluded users are not scanned. \n\n### Filtering by Groups\n\n- **Only Include**: Only messages sent by users in included Slack groups are scanned for sensitive data. \n- **Exclude**: Messages sent by users in excluded Slack groups are not scanned.\n\n### Filtering by Apps\n\n- **Only Include**: Only messages sent by included Slack apps are scanned for sensitive data. \n- **Exclude**: Messages sent by excluded Slack apps are not scanned.\n\n## Priority Order for Conflict Management\n\nNightfall uses prioritization to decide which messages to scan when multiple filters are configured in a policy. The order of priority is:\n\n1. User Exclusion\n2. User Inclusion\n3. Group Exclusion\n4. Group Inclusion\n\n**How it works:**\n\n1\\. Initially, Nightfall checks if the file owner is on the User Exclusion list. If they are, their messages are not scanned, no matter how other filters are configured in a policy.\n\n2\\. If the user isn't excluded, Nightfall then checks if they're on the User Inclusion list. If they are, all their messages are scanned for that policy.\n\n3\\. If the user isn't on either the exclusion or inclusion lists, Nightfall looks at group memberships. It checks if the user belongs to any excluded groups. If they do, their messages are not scanned for that policy.\n\n4\\. Finally, if none of the above apply, Nightfall checks if the user is in any included groups. If they are, their messages are scanned for that policy. If not, the messages are not scanned.\n\n

DLP policies help you to monitor and remediate the flow of sensitive data within your organization. Depending on your Nightfall policy configuration, you can set up policies to monitor data that is sent through some or all applications within your organization. You can configure policies and choose to not apply them all the time. \n\nBefore you define a policy, or a set of policies, you must define the objectives of each policy, which can then be fulfilled when you configure the policy. Here are a few important questions to ask before configuring your policies: \n\n• What data do you plan to monitor? \n\n• Where within the organization do you want to monitor? \n\n• What should be the scope of each policy? \n\n• What conditions must apply for the policy to match? \n\n• What exceptions/exclusions can be allowed? \n\n• What remediation actions should the policy take? \n\nYou can now set up policies to determine which Slack channels are monitored (and which are excluded) for violations and what actions Nightfall must take. Policies determine the content that will be scanned by Nightfall, and workflows that are followed to manage violations. \n\nPolicies for Slack integration allow you to define configurations specific to Slack, such as how to handle messages for particular channels or use automated actions such as Quarantine.\n\nCreating a Nightfall policy involves the following tasks:\n\n1. Create Policies\n2. Define the policy scope and exclusions\n3. Configure Detection Rule\n4. Configure Automated Actions\n\n**Note:** Instructions to configure policies differ for Slack Pro and Slack Enterprise options.

This data moves between Salesforce and other applications, from headquarters to remote work zones, from your premises to cloud, from a trusted account to a lead. When you perform tasks like updating records via email, web, or by using APIs that integrate with Salesforce, you expose your data and make it vulnerable to misuse.\n\nData leaks can impact your business in many ways - revenue loss, customer satisfaction and damaged brand reputation, besides potential penalties and lawsuits.\n\nLegacy DLP solutions don’t collect threat context information, and leave you blind to data movement between compromised user accounts and identities. Data leakage through compromised accounts appears genuine to such solutions.\n\nNightfall for Salesforce enables you to enforce policies for data classification and protection on standard objects, files and attachments. It scans objects and fields in real time in production or sandbox environments. You can instantly discover any theft or leakage, and take remedial action.\n\nNightfall for Salesforce supports the following Salesforce Sales Cloud editions across both production and sandbox instances:\n\n- Salesforce Sales Cloud - Enterprise, Unlimited and Developer editions\n- Salesforce Service Cloud - Enterprise, Unlimited and Developer editions \n- Salesforce Health Cloud - Enterprise, Unlimited and Developer editions \n- Salesforce Experience or Community Cloud \n\nYou can install and authorize Nightfall DLP app package in Salesforce production environments.\n\nNightfall for Salesforce supports real-time scans and alerts for the following objects: \n\n- Accounts\n- Attachments\n- Case\n- Contacts\n- Contracts\n- Email messages\n- Feed Comments\n- Feed Item\n- Lead\n- Opportunity\n- Task\n- User\n\nNote: Field types including standard and custom only are currently supported\n\nFeatures like audit trails, which track who has accessed and modified data help in preventing accidental or unauthorized loss of sensitive data. Nightfall DLP for Salesforce eliminates data exposure risks from Salesforce by automating data security across all objects in your organization. It will enable you to be compliant with[ PCI DSS](https://www.pcicomplianceguide.org/faq/) as well as [GDPR](https://ec.europa.eu/info/law/law-topic/data-protection_en) and [CCPA](https://oag.ca.gov/privacy/ccpa).\n\n***\n\n# Agent Instructions\n\nThis documentation is published with GitBook.

Further, [Platform Events limits](https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/atlas.en-us.platform_events.meta/platform_events/platform_events_limits_default.htm) are shared across all workflows that leverage Platform Events and, per Salesforce, are replinished on a 24 hour rolling basis.\n\nEvery time an update happens on one of the objects monitoried by Nightfall DLP for Salesfoce, Nightfall's Salesforce package triggers an event that is queued in the Salesforce orgs Platform Events messaging queue. Subsequently Nightfall DLP Platform retrieves the event and the payload from the Platform Events queue and processes the update.\n\n#### How Salesforce Platform Events limits affect Nightfall DLP for Salesforce processing?\n\nNightfall understands the criticality of Platform Events for Salesforce workflows and has defined a High Threshold and a Low Threshold for Platform Events usage on the customer's Salesforce org. If the Platform Events usage on the customer's Salesforce org breaches the High Threshold then Nightfall DLP for Salesforce will pause scan. Nightfall DLP for Salesforce will resume scan only when the Platform Events usage on the customer's Salesforce org goes below the Low Threshold. This way Nightfall DLP for Salesforce behaves as a model enterprise application and ensures that critical Salesforce workflows (like order processing) are prioritised over sensitive data scan.\n\nPlease reach out to your customer success manager for further details.\n\n#### I selected Delete and Redact in my Policy. Is that a problem?\n\nIf you opted for both Redact and Delete actions in a policy for a set of objects and fields, Delete takes precedence over redact. \n\nAll potential sensitive tokens are automatically deleted from the configured objects and fields.\n\n#### On a single object, I want to configure a policy to automatically delete all credit card data, but auto-redact SSN.\n\nYou can create two policies on the object;\n\n- one policy with a detection rule for the SSN detector, with redaction as the automated action.\n- Another policy with a detection rule for credit card detector with delete as the automation action.\n\n#### Why does Nightfall only scan emails that are sent, replied, forwarded but not the draft emails?\n\nSalesforce may save emails in draft stage multiple times either because of the user action or automatically. Every save triggers a Salesforce event which causes Nightfall to scane the contents of the email draft if there is a policy to scan emails objects. This can lead to a situation where multiple violations are reported for the same sensitive data if the email is saved multiple times in the draft stage. \n\nSo, Nightfall has disabled scanning of emails as long as they are in draft stage. However, emails will continue to be be scanned when other operations happen, for examples emails are sent, replied and forwarded. The user can reach out to Nightfall if they wish Nightfall to scan the drafts too, but it should be noted that as described above, this can lead to the same findings getting flagged across violations whenever the draft is saved.\n\n#### Nightfall doesn’t remediate sensitive information from Email Message object. How do I solve this?\n\nEmail message is an immutable object in Salesforce. Therefore, Nightfall cannot modify the object record. You can delete the email from within Salesforce, once you receive a notification.\n\n**I received a violation notification. However, the information was removed by the user in Salesforce. How will auto remediation respond?**\n\nIf the object does not contain sensitive information at the time of remediation, Nightfall will not remediate any data. Nightfall will re-scan the violated object and fields before performing any remediation.\n\n#### I performed manual remediation on an object record after the object was deleted from Salesforce. How do I know if it was successful?\n\nNightfall detects that the object record does not exist anymore, and will stop remediation. A notification is sent to you.\n\n#### How do I know if remediation action was successful?\n\nNightfall sends notifications for remediation action it performs.\n\n#### A new version of the attachment was uploaded, can I remediate the previous version which had sensitive information?\n\nNo, Salesforce does not provide the option to delete specific versions of a file. Further, Salesforce only allows deletion of all the versions of an attachment. You can manually delete the attachment in Salesforce.\n\nIf the version was updated, and the object clears the scan, Nightfall will not delete the attachment and issues a notification with this information. \n\n#### If I have Einstein Activity Capture configured which synchronizes my mail and I see them in Salesforce. Can Nightfall detect sensitive information in these objects too?\n\nNo. Nightfall does not have the capability to detect sensitive information in any entity synced by Einstein Activity Capture.\n\n#### What does the Nightfall DLP webhook notification for Salesforce look like?\n\nPlease see some example webhook responses below:\n\n- Violations\n- Manual Remediation\n- Automated Remediation\n\n#### Violation\n\n```\n{\n\"detectionRulesLink\": \"https://app.nightfall.ai/?intendedRoute=detection-engine/detection-rules\",\n\"detectionRulesViolated\": \"SSN DR\",\n\"eventType\": \"violation\",\n\"message\": \"Policy violation detected in Salesforce\",\n\"policiesLink\": \"https://app.nightfall.ai/?intendedRoute=salesforce/?policyUUID%5B%5D=cfa52d83-76d4-4840-a260-15e535c740a6\",\n\"policiesViolated\": \"Account\",\n\"service\": \"Salesforce\",\n\"timestamp\": \"2022-06-22T06:34:30Z\",\n\"violationID\": \"CRY7XI\",\n\"violationMetadata\": {\n\t\"acknowledgeLink\": \"https://app.nightfall.ai/?intendedRoute=salesforce/remediation/082c0eb5-df1c-46cb-b8c2-f649747c9020/CRY7XI/acknowledge\",\n\t\"deleteRecordLink\": \"https://app.nightfall.ai/?intendedRoute=salesforce/remediation/082c0eb5-df1c-46cb-b8c2-f649747c9020/CRY7XI/delete\",\n\t\"event\": \"Record Updation\",\n\t\"fields\": \"description\",\n\t\"findingSnippets\": [\n\t\t\"SSN: 55*********.\"\n\t],\n\t\"findings\": \"US social security number (SSN) (1 Very Likely)\",\n\t\"objectName\": \"Case\",\n\t\"orgName\": \"NightfallProdDemo\",\n\t\"orgType\": \"Sandbox\",\n\t\"recordID\": \"5008K000000yP86QAE\",\n\t\"recordLink\": \"https://prodnfdlpdemo--fullsandbo.sandbox.my.salesforce.com/5008K000000yP86QAE\",\n\t\"redactFindingsLink\": \"https://app.nightfall.ai/?intendedRoute=salesforce/remediation/082c0eb5-df1c-46cb-b8c2-f649747c9020/CRY7XI/redact\",\n\t\"who\": \"Mohit Mangnani\",\n\t\"whoLink\": \"https://prodnfdlpdemo--fullsandbo.sandbox.my.salesforce.com/0058a00000KgiirAAB\"\n},\n\"violationTime\": \"22 Jun 2022 at 6:34AM UTC\"\n}\n```\n\n#### Manual Remediation\n\n```\n{\n\t\"eventType\": \"remediation\",\n\t\"message\": \"mohit+prod@nightfall.ai deleted finding(s).\",\n\t\"remediationMetadata\": {\n\t\t\"ActionUser\": \"mohit+prod@nightfall.ai\",\n\t\t\"actionType\": \"delete\",\n\t\t\"fields\": \"description\",\n\t\t\"objectName\": \"Case\",\n\t\t\"remediationType\": \"manual\",\n\t\t\"success\": true,\n\t\t\"unchangedFields\": \"\"\n\t},\n\t\"remediationTime\": \"22 Jun 2022 at 6:38AM UTC\",\n\t\"service\": \"Salesforce\",\n\t\"timestamp\": \"2022-06-22T06:38:07Z\",\n\t\"violationID\": \"CRY7XI\"\n}\n```\n\n#### Automated Remediation\n\n```\n{\n\t\"eventType\": \"remediation\",\n\t\"message\": \"mohit+prod@nightfall.ai deleted finding(s).\",\n\t\"remediationMetadata\": {\n\t\t\"ActionUser\": \"mohit+prod@nightfall.ai\",\n\t\t\"actionType\": \"delete\",\n\t\t\"fields\": \"description\",\n\t\t\"objectName\": \"Case\",\n\t\t\"remediationType\": \"manual\",\n\t\t\"success\": true,\n\t\t\"unchangedFields\": \"\"\n\t},\n\t\"remediationTime\": \"22 Jun 2022 at 6:38AM UTC\",\n\t\"service\": \"Salesforce\",\n\t\"timestamp\": \"2022-06-22T06:38:07Z\",\n\t\"violationID\": \"CRY7XI\"\n}\n```\n\n***\n\n# Agent Instructions\n\nThis documentation is published with GitBook.

Markdown versions of documentation pages are available by appending `.md` to page URLs; this page is available as [Markdown](https://help.nightfall.ai/notion/policies/advanced_settings.md).\n\n# Configure Advanced Settings for Notion\n\nThis stage allows you to select notification channels if a policy violation occurs. The advanced settings page consists of the following configurations. \n\n[#admin-alerting](#admin-alerting \"mention\"): This section describes the process of setting alerts for Nightfall administrators when a policy violation is detected.\n\n[#automated-actions](#automated-actions \"mention\"): This section describes the automated actions that can be taken when a policy violation is detected.\n\n[#end-user-notification](#end-user-notification \"mention\"): This section describes the process of setting alerts for end users (a person whose action caused a violation) when a policy violation is detected.\n\n## Admin Alerting\n\n{% hint style=\"info\" %}\nThe alert configurations configured in this section describe the process of creating alerts at the policy level. Policy-level alerts apply only to the policy on which they are configured. To configure an alert on all the Slack policies, you must configure alerts at the integration level. To learn more about how to configure integration-level policies for Slack integration, read [this document](https://help.nightfall.ai/nightfall-ai/notion/configuring-integration-alerts).\n{% endhint %}\n\nThe steps to configure alert channels for policy-level integration are the same as in the case of integration-level alerts. You can refer to [this document](https://help.nightfall.ai/nightfall-ai/notion/configuring-integration-alerts#configure-alerts-at-the-integration-level) for steps.\n\n## Automated Actions\n\nThis section describes the various actions that Nightfall takes automatically when a violation is detected. You must turn on the toggle switch to enable an action. All the automated actions are permanent and cannot be reversed once applied. You can also set the timeline as to when an action must be taken (immediately after detecting a violation or after some time).\n\nThe various automated actions are described as follows.\n\n- **Redact**: This action redacts all the sensitive information found in the content of a Notion page. You can turn on the toggle switch to enable this action. \\\n \\\n You must also select the timeline as to when this action must be taken after a policy violation is detected. You can either choose to take the action immediately after detecting a violation or after a few minutes, hours, or days. \n- **Delete Attachment**: This action deletes any attachments in the Notion pages that contain sensitive information. You can turn on the toggle switch to enable this action. \\\n \\\n You must also select the timeline as to when this action must be taken after a policy violation is detected. You can either choose to take the action immediately after detecting a violation or after a few minutes, hours, or days. \n- **Mark as Private**: This action modifies the status of the Notion page that contains sensitive information. You can either choose to unpublish the webpage or remove guest users from your Notion account, thus ensuring that none of the people from outside your organization are able to view sensitive information on your Notion page.\\\n \\\n You must also select the timeline as to when this action must be taken after a policy violation is detected. You can either choose to take the action immediately after detecting a violation or after a few minutes, hours, or days. \n\n

\n\n### Conflict Management in Automated Actions\n\nConflicts can arise in two main scenarios:\n\n1. All the automated actions are configured in a single policy.\n2. Multiple policies with different automated actions were violated simultaneously within the same file, message or record. \n\nWhen conflicts occur, Nightfall implements the most severe automated action. The priority order to manage conflicts in Notion is as follows.\n\n1. Delete Attachment\n2. Redact\n3. Remove Access\n\n**Conflict resolution**:\n\n- **Delete Attachment** takes precedence over all other actions if an attachment contains sensitive data.\n- For conflicts between **Redact** and **Remove Access**:\n - **Unpublished pages**: Only **Redact** is applied\n - **Published pages**: Both **Redact** and **Remove Access** are implemented. The page is unpublished, and sensitive data is redacted in the internal Notion page.\n\n## End User Notification\n\nThis section allows you to configure notifications to be sent to the end user whose actions triggered the violation. \n\n- **Custom Message**: Enter a custom message to be sent to the end user. This message is sent in an Email. You can modify the default message provided by Nightfall and draft your message. The total character length allowed is 1000 characters. You can also add hyperlinks in the custom message. The syntax is \\. For example, to hyperlink [https://www.nightfall.ai](https://www.nightfall.ai/) with the text **Nightfall website**, you must write <[https://www.nightfall.ai](https://www.nightfall.ai/) | Nightfall website> .\n- **Automation**: You can either select Email, Slack, or both as an automated notification method. You must turn the toggle switch to use this option. Based on the options selected, end-users receive notification on their Email account associated with Zendesk, or Slack account configured.\n\n## End User Remediation\n\nEnd-User remediation (also known as Human Firewall) allows you to configure remediation measures that end users can take when a violation is detected on their Zendesk ticket. You must turn on the toggle switch to use this option. The various available options are as follows.\n\n- **Redact:** This action redacts all the sensitive information found in the Zendesk ticket's comments. To allow end-users to implement this action, you must disable it from the [#automated-actions](#automated-actions \"mention\") section. \n- **Delete Attachment**: This action deletes any attachments in the Zendesk ticket's comments that contain sensitive information. To allow end-users to implement this action, you must disable it from the [#automated-actions](#automated-actions \"mention\") section.\n- **Mark as Private:** This action modifies the permission of the comment (on which sensitive information is detected) from public to internal note. To allow end-users to implement this action, you must disable it from the [#automated-actions](#automated-actions \"mention\") section.\n- **Report as False Positive with Business Justification**: This option allows end users to report false positive alerts and provide a business justification as to why the alert is considered to be false positive. \n- **Report as False Positive**: This option allows end users to report false positive alerts.\n- **When a Violation is Reported as False Positive**: You can use this option to set actions to be taken when a violation is reported as false positive by the end-user. You can either set the remediation to be automatic or manual. \n- **Remind Every (until Violation expires)**: You can use this option to set a reminder for the end-user to take action on the violation. You can choose to remind the end user every 24, 48, or 72 hours.\n\n

\n\nWhen you configure alert settings at the integration level, the alert settings apply to all the policies, created for the Notion DLP integration. However, when you configure alert settings specifically for a policy, which is created in the Notion DLP integration, the alert settings are applicable only for that specific policy. \n\nThis document explains how to configure alerts at the integration level. To learn about how to configure alerts at the policy level, read [this document](/gmail/policies/advanced_settings.md#admin-alerting).\n\n## Prerequisites\n\n- To use Slack as an alert platform, you must first perform the required Slack configurations. You can refer to [this document](https://help.nightfall.ai/nightfall-ai/detection/setting-up-slack-as-an-alert-channel-in-nightfall) to learn more about how to configure Slack as an Alert platform. \n- To use Webhook as an alert platform, you must first perform the required Webhook configurations. You can refer to [this document](https://help.nightfall.ai/nightfall-ai/operationalizing-dlp/integrating-with-security-tools/integrating-with-siem#configuring-outgoing-webhooks)[ ](https://help.nightfall.ai/nightfall-ai/operationalizing-dlp/integrating-with-security-tools/integrating-with-siem#configuring-outgoing-webhooks)to learn more about how to configure Webhook as an Alert platform. \n- To use JIRA as an alert platform, you must have the DLP for the JIRA app installed from the [Atlassian Marketplace](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1226823/dlp-for-jira-nightfall-ai?tab=overview\\&hosting=cloud). You can read more about the DLP for JIRA integration [here](https://help.nightfall.ai/nightfall-ai/nightfall-for-jira/getting-started/installing-nightfall-for-jira). \n\n## Configure Alerts at the Integration Level \n\nYou can configure alerts at the integration level once you have installed the Nightfall for Notion DLP integration. \n\nTo configure alerts at the integration level:\n\n1.

Markdown versions of documentation pages are available by appending `.md` to page URLs; this page is available as [Markdown](https://help.nightfall.ai/nightfall_settings/directory_sync/okta.md).\n\n# Add Okta to Nightfall\n\nThis document explains the process of adding your Okta tenant to Nightfall to enable Directory Sync. Once you add Okta to Nightfall, you can sync users and user groups data from your Okta account to Nightfall. To get an overview of the Directory Sync feature in Nightfall, you can read [this article](/nightfall_settings/directory_sync.md) and then proceed with this document. \n\nIn this document you are basically authorizing the Nightfall application in Okta. The authorization process involves two steps. In the first step, you authorize the Nightfall app in the Okta console. This process generates an Okta domain, client ID and client secret. You must copy these values. In the second step, you must paste these values in the Nightfall console to complete the process. \n\n## Prerequisites\n\n- You must have admin access to your Okta account. \n\n## Integrating Nightfall in Okta\n\n1. Log in to your Okta account with admin credentials and navigate to the admin console. \n2. In the left pane, expand **Applications** and select **API Service Integrations**.\n\n

\n\n3. Click **Add Integration**.\n4. Select the **Nightfall AI** integration. \n\n

\n\n5. Click **Install & Authorize**.\n\n

\n\n6. The client secret is generated. Click **Copy to clipboard** and store this secret securely. You cannot view this secret again. \n7. Click **Done**. \n\n

\n\n7. Copy the values in the **Okta Domain** and **Client ID** fields. \n\n

\n\n## Configuring Okta in Nightfall\n\n1. Log in to your Nightfall console.\n2. In the left pane, click the **Settings** menu.\n3. Click the **Directory Sync** tab.\n\n

\n\n4. Click **Add directory**. \n\n

\n\n{% hint style=\"info\" %}\nIf you have already created IdP with Google Workspace or Microsoft Entra, you can view the list of IdP(s). In this case, you must click the **+ Add Directory** button. \n{% endhint %}\n\n5. Click **Set up** on the Okta widget. \n\n

\n\n6. Paste the **Okta Domain**, **Client ID,** and **Client Secret** values, obtained in the previous section. \n7. Click **Connect** (This button is activated only after you enter the values as mentioned in the previous step).\n\n

\n\n6. A dialogue box with successful connection message is displayed. Click **Finish** to complete the process. \n\n

\n\nYou can view the connection details as shown in the following image. Click **+ Add directory** to authorize the Nightfall app on additional Okta domains. \n\n \n\n

\n\n3. Click **Add Directory**. \n\n

\n\n4. Select **Azure Entra** as the identity provider. \n\n

\n\n5. Click **Connect**. \n\n

\n\n6. Enter Email or phone number associated with your Microsoft Azure account. \n7. Click **Next**.\n\n

\n\n8. Enter your password and click **Sign In.**\n\nWhen you sign in as an Azure admin, you can consent the installation of Nightfall IDP yourself. You can view the following screen. You must click **Accept**. \n\n

\n\nOnce you approve the request, the installation proceeds. Once the installation is completed, you can see the following screen. You must click **Setup Complete**.\n\n

\n\nAfter the setup is complete, the first sync may take 15 to 30 min to complete. While the first sync is in progress you would see \"pending\" under status. Once the sync is complete, the status would transition from \"pending\" to \"synced\" and you can view the number of active users, inactive users and groups discovered. \n\n

\n\n{% hint style=\"info\" %}\nActive users in Azure are the users who actively log in to Azure and perform various tasks. \n\nInactive users are dormant users who have not logged in to their Azure account for a while. You can refer to this [Microsoft document](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/entra/identity/monitoring-health/howto-manage-inactive-user-accounts) to learn more about managing inactive users.\n{% endhint %}\n\nNightfall syncs with your Identity and Access Provider every four hours. Also, you can manually sync once every hour. To sync data manually, click the ellipsis menu and select **Refresh.**\n\n

\n\nCurrently, once registered you cannot unregister an Identity and Access Provider from Nightfall. If you do wish to unregister your Identity and Access Provider, please contact Nightfall support.\n\n***\n\n# Agent Instructions\n\nThis documentation is published with GitBook.

Markdown versions of documentation pages are available by appending `.md` to page URLs; this page is available as [Markdown](https://help.nightfall.ai/nightfall_settings/directory_sync.md).\n\n# Directory Sync\n\nThis document explains how to integrate Nightfall with your identity providers (IdPs) like Microsoft Entra ID, Google Workspace Directory, and Okta Service. This integration simplifies policy management in Nightfall allowing you to include or exclude users and user groups, by leveraging existing user information for easier administration within Nightfall and other SaaS products.\n\n## Advantages of Integration\n\n- **Simplified Policy Management**: Nightfall automatically synchronises user and group information from your IDps, eliminating the need for manual user inclusions or exclusions in policies. This continuous sync ensures your policies always reflect the latest user directory information, streamlining management and reducing administrative overhead.\n- **Tailored Policies with User Groups**: Leverage existing user groups defined in your IdPs to easily create granular DLP policies within Nightfall. Assign specific access and permission levels to different user groups, ensuring data security and compliance across various SaaS applications like Microsoft Teams, OneDrive, and Google Drive.\n- **Dynamic User Management**: As users are added or removed from your IdP directory, Nightfall automatically reflects these changes, updating your DLP policies. This ensures your policies remain accurate and relevant, eliminating the need for manual updates.\n\n## Configuring Directory Sync\n\nThe Directory Sync feature allows you to connect your user directories (Microsoft Entra ID and Google Workspace) with Nightfall. This sync is essential for enabling functionalities within Nightfall's SaaS apps like Microsoft 365 Teams, OneDrive for Business, Google Drive, and other apps.\n\n- **Microsoft Teams Direct Message Monitoring (Azure Entra ID):** To monitor direct messages in Microsoft Teams for potential data leaks, Nightfall requires access to your Microsoft Entra ID account. Syncing your Entra ID account grants Nightfall a list of active users and groups, facilitating the monitoring of user communication and data flow.\n- **OneDrive for Business**: To monitor user OneDrive for potentially sensitive data leaks Nightfall requires access to your Microsoft OneDrive for Business account.

Credentials are redacted with `████).`\n- Status is `IN_PROGRESS` until an analyst acts on the incident. This matches Nightfall's standard async-violation behavior.\n- The **Claude Activity** view shows admin events (logins, member changes, API-key creation, configuration changes) from your Claude organization. These events are written to the Nightfall audit log and forwarded to SIEM. They never appear as incidents.\n\n### Scope and limitations\n\nRead this section before deploying so expectations match reality.\n\n- **Monitor-only on this channel.** The Compliance API is post-hoc, so Nightfall sees content after it has been submitted to Claude. Inline pre-submit blocking on Claude is handled by the Nightfall endpoint agent on Claude Desktop, Claude Code, and the browser tab. (Link to endpoint-agent help doc.)\n- **Claude Enterprise only.** Claude Team plan is not exposed by the Compliance API.\n- **No model-inference coverage on the Claude Platform.** The Compliance API does not expose model-inference content. For real-time scanning and blocking on Claude Code (IDE and CLI), see the Nightfall AI Agent Security integration based on Claude Code Hooks and OpenTelemetry. (Link to AI Agent Security help doc.)\n- **No coverage of Claude on Amazon Bedrock or Google Vertex AI.**\n- **No ACL or permission graph.** Identity governance over Claude (who can access which project) lives with Okta and SailPoint.\n\n***\n\n# Agent Instructions\n\nThis documentation is published with GitBook.

This is the fourth Claude surface Nightfall covers; the other three (described in Section 8) handle inline blocking and runtime audit. The Compliance API integration adds the server-side, organization-level monitor and audit layer.\n\n- Scans Claude Enterprise chat conversations and uploaded files for sensitive data: PII, PHI, PCI, secrets, source code, and any custom detector you have already built.\n- Surfaces violations in the standard Detection & Response page using existing policies and detection rules. No new console.\n- Monitor-only on this surface. Admin alerts (Slack, email, webhook, SIEM), optional end-user notification, and a full audit trail. The Compliance API is post-hoc, so no inline block is possible on this channel. Inline block on Claude continues to happen at the endpoint (Claude Desktop and the Claude web tab) and at the Hooks layer (Claude Code IDE and CLI). See Section 8.\n- Coverage scope of _this_ integration, explicitly: Claude Enterprise chat conversations and uploaded files only. Not Claude Team. Not Claude on Bedrock or Vertex AI. Not model-inference content delivered through the Claude Platform. (Nightfall's runtime Claude coverage, listed in Section 8, handles the surfaces this integration does not.)\n\n### Prerequisites\n\n- Claude Enterprise plan with admin access to the Claude admin console.\n- A Nightfall account with Detection & Response enabled.\n- A Compliance Access Key generated from the Claude admin console. See Anthropic's guide for generating one.\n\n***\n\n# Agent Instructions\n\nThis documentation is published with GitBook.

Together with this integration, they give a Claude customer end-to-end coverage with one set of detection rules and one console.\n\n| Surface | Integration | What it does | Enforcement |\n| ------------------------------------------ | -------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------- |\n| Claude Desktop, Claude web tab | **Nightfall endpoint agent** | Scans file uploads and clipboard pastes for sensitive content; runs Lineage Source Tracking so a corporate Google Drive, SharePoint, or GitHub origin is recognized | **Inline block** (pre-submit) |\n| Claude Code (IDE and CLI) | **Nightfall AI Agent Security (Hooks)** | Scans prompts, MCP tool calls, tool responses, and shell commands; detects secrets, PII, PCI, PHI, IP, and prompt injection | **Inline block** (real-time) |\n| Claude Cowork | **Nightfall AI Agent Security (OpenTelemetry)** | Session-level audit trail of cost, token usage, and tool invocations exported over OTel | **Audit** (session-level) |\n| Claude Enterprise chats and uploaded files | **Claude Compliance API integration** _(this doc)_ | Server-side scan of chat conversations and uploaded files; runs the same detector set used everywhere else in Nightfall | **Monitor + audit** (post-hoc, org-wide) |\n\nPick the integration that matches the control you need. Most customers run all four: the endpoint agent and Hooks layer block before sensitive data reaches Claude on the surfaces where blocking is possible; the OpenTelemetry trail audits Claude Cowork sessions; and this Compliance API integration adds the server-side, organization-level record that compliance and SOC teams can pull for SOX, HIPAA, and SOC 2 evidence regardless of which device, project, or workspace the activity originated from. All four feed the same Detection & Response policy library and surface incidents in the same workflow.\n\n***\n\n# Agent Instructions\n\nThis documentation is published with GitBook.

You can use this integration to check if any sensitive data exists in your OneDrive account. If sensitive data is found, you can configure appropriate steps to secure your OneDrive. \n\n## Prerequisites to Monitor OneDrive\n\nAs a prerequisite, to use the Nightfall for OneDrive integration, you must configure the Directory Sync feature in Nightfall. This configuration fetches details of users in your Azure Entra account and the default OneDrives associated with each user which can be monitored by Nightfall. To learn more about configuring the Directory Sync feature, you can refer to [this document](https://help.nightfall.ai/nightfall-ai/nightfall-settings/directory-sync/adding-microsoft-entra-id-to-nightfall).\n\n## Configuring OneDrive App\n\nOnce you set up the Directory Sync feature, you must configure the OneDrive app. The Steps for the same are as follows. \n\n1. Navigate to **Microsoft 365** integration under **My Integrations**.\n\n

\n\n2. Click **+ Add Tenant**. \n\n

\n\n3. Click **Connect** to initiate the authentication of your Microsoft Azure Entra account.\n\n

\n\n4. Enter your Azure login credentials. \n5. Click **Accept**. \n\n

\n\n6. Ensure that the Teams check box is selected. If you wish to use Microsoft for OneDrive, you can also select the check box for OneDrive. \n7. Click Save **Changes**.\n\n

\n\n8. Click **Finish.**\n\n

\n\nYou can see that the apps selected in step 6 (Teams, OneDrive) are now connected. \n\n

\n\nIf you have not connected either the OneDrive or the Teams application in step 6, the **Connect** button is displayed against the app. You can click the **Update App Selection** button to connect to the app. \n\n

Markdown versions of documentation pages are available by appending `.md` to page URLs; this page is available as [Markdown](https://help.nightfall.ai/jira/installation.md).\n\n# Install Nightfall for Jira\n\nThis document explains the process of installing Nightfall for Jira. \n\n## Prerequisites\n\nThe installation of Jira integration requires you to have the following prerequisites\n\n- An Atlassian tenant with Jira enabled. \n- Standard Atlassian user account used as a Service Account - A regular Atlassian user account (has a password, can log into the Atlassian UI) that is shared or dedicated for system use rather than belonging to a specific person.\n - Has a password and can log in via the browser\n - Has its own dedicated email (e.g., [`nightfall-jira@company.com`](mailto:nightfall-jira@company.com) or an AD account)\n - ❌ Not Supported - Atlassian Service Account (Programmatic)\n\n Atlassian's native \"service account\" feature, designed for programmatic access only.\n\n - No password - cannot log in via the browser UI\n - Cannot complete Nightfall's OAuth consent screen\n - Also lacks the `issue:redact` scope, so Jira historical redaction would not work even if supported\n - Cannot be created programmatically (must be created manually in Atlassian Admin)\n- You must have access and must be logged in to the Atlassian account. \n\n## How Nightfall Uses the Connected Account\n\n| **Function** | **Credentials Used** |\n| ---------------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------- |\n| OAuth flow - discovering Jira/Confluence sites | Installing user (service account) |\n| All DLP scanning | Nightfall App credentials - NOT the user |\n| Jira historical redaction API | Installing user (service account) |\n| All other APIs | Nightfall App credentials |\n\n**Key implication:** Revoking the service account's Atlassian permissions will NOT affect scanning. It only affects Jira historical redaction, which falls back to replacing text with `[Sensitive Data Removed]` instead of native API-based redaction.\n\n## Recommended Setup: Service Account Installation\n\nFollow these steps for a **fresh installation** or when **re-authorizing** to switch from an individual account to a service account.\n\n**Step 1 - Create the Atlassian Service Account**\n\nCreate a dedicated Atlassian user account to serve as the service account:\n\n1. Use a shared mailbox or AD account email (e.g., `nightfall-jira@company.com`)\n2. This must be a **standard Atlassian user account** - it needs a password and must be able to log into Atlassian via the browser\n3. Assign it the necessary Jira/Confluence admin permissions to complete the OAuth flow\n\n**Step 2 - Add the Service Account as a Nightfall System Administrator**\n\n> This step is critical. It ensures that the service account email (not a personal admin's email) is shown in Nightfall's Integrations page.\n\n1. Log into the Nightfall console as a current admin\n2. Go to **Settings → Users**\n3. Invite the service account email (e.g., `nightfall-jira@company.com`) and assign the **System Administrator** role\n4. Have the service account complete the Nightfall invitation/login flow\n\n**Step 3 - Install / Re-authorize Jira Using the Service Account**\n\nUse an **incognito/private browser window** for the entire flow to avoid conflicts with any personally logged-in Atlassian accounts.\n\n1. Open an incognito tab\n2. **Log into Jira/Atlassian** with the service account credentials\n3. **In the same incognito tab**, open the Nightfall console and log in as the **service account user** (the System Administrator added in Step 2)\n4. Navigate to **Configuration → Integrations → Jira**\n5. Click **\"+ Add Site\"**\n6. Select your Atlassian site from the dropdown\n7. Click **\"Accept\"** to grant Nightfall permissions\n8. Click the **Jira icon** to open the Atlassian Marketplace\n9. Select **\"Get it now\"** on the DLP for Jira app page\n10. Choose your site and click **\"Install app\"** → confirm **\"Get it now\"**\n\nAfter installation, Nightfall automatically configures the integration and shows an \"Alert Destination\" label.\n\n**Step 4 - Verify**\n\nIn Nightfall Console → Integrations → Jira, confirm:\n\n1. The **email shown** matches the service account email (e.g., `nightfall-jira@company.com`)\n2. The site appears with \"Alert Destination\" status\n\nIf the email shown matches the service account - setup is complete and correct.\n\nWhen you return to the Nightfall application, the appearance of the JIRA icon changes once the **DLP for Jira** app is installed. This confirms the successful installation of the **DLP for Jira** app. \n\n{% hint style=\"info\" %}\n**Important**\n\nOnce you install the DLP for Jira application on an Atlassian account, Nightfall automatically configures the Alert platform with this Jira account. You can confirm this by navigating to **Settings** -> **Alert platforms** in Nightfall.\n{% endhint %}\n\n

\n\nIn the Atlassian integration page, there is a phrase attached to this Atlassian account known as **Alert Destination** which also confirms that this Jira is used as an Alert platform.\n\n

\n\nWhen you install **DLP for Jira** on another Atlassian account, the alert destination automatically shifts to the new Atlassian account on which the DLP for Jira is recently installed.\n\n## Re-authorizing an Existing Connection (No Fresh Install Needed)\n\nIf the integration already exists but was set up with an individual admin account, you can switch to a service account without disconnecting or reinstalling.\n\n1. Complete Steps 1 and 2 above (create service account + add to Nightfall as System Admin)\n2. Open an incognito tab; log into Jira with the service account\n3. Open Nightfall console in the same tab; log in as the service account Nightfall user\n4. Go to **Integrations → Jira → click \"+ Add Site\"**\n5. Complete the OAuth flow with the service account\n\nThe credentials are **overwritten in-place**. No disruption to policies, violations, or scanning.\n\n***\n\n# Agent Instructions\n\nThis documentation is published with GitBook.

End users receive this email from . Apart from this email, end users also get the original Email which was blocked.\n\nThe Email looks as follows. \n\n

\n\nThe status of the Event is also automatically changed to Blocked when the Email is blocked.\n\n## Quarantine\n\nWhen an email is quarantined, it is stored separately in a secure Gmail server. A Google Workspace admin must visit the server, review the quarantined email, and decide as to whether the email must be allowed to travel to the recipient or be blocked. \n\nTo access the quarantine emails:\n\n1. Login to your Google Workspace with an admin account.\n2. Click the menu icon.\n3. Select **Admin**.\n\n

\n\n4. In the left menu, expand **Apps** and then expand **Google Workspace**.\n5. Click **Gmail**.\n\n

\n\n6. Scroll down and click **Manage quarantines**.\n\n

\n\n7. Click **GO TO ADMIN QUARANTINE**.\n\n

\n\nThe list of all the quarantined emails is displayed. \n\n

\n\nClick any email to expand it. You can view three options. \n\n- **SHOW ORIGINAL** - This option displays the full email.\n- **ALLOW** - This option releases the email from quarantine and sends it to the recipient. You must select this option if you are confident that the sensitive data detected by Nightfall is false positive.\n- **DENY** - This option blocks the email and does not send it to the recipient. You must select this option if you are confident that the sensitive data detected by Nightfall is actually sensitive.\n\n

\n\n## Encrypt\n\nWhen an Email is encrypted, an additional event is created in the [Nightfall data encryption](https://help.nightfall.ai/data-encryption/gmail/encryption-events-page), apart from the regular event created in Nightfall detection and response. The email is delivered to the recipient. An event is logged in Nightfall Nightfall detection and response with the Status **Encrypted**. \n\n## Understanding Gmail DLP Events\n\nWhen an end user violates a policy in Gmail DLP, an Event is generated based on the notification settings configured by you in the policy configurations. To learn more about Events, see [Data Detection and Response Events](/dashboard/sdp_events.md).\n\nTo view the Events from the Nightfall Console:\n\n1. Click **Detection and Response** from the left pane.\n2. (Optional) Modify the days filter to view Events prior to last 7 days. By default the Events recorded in the **Last 7 Days** are displayed.\n3. Apply filters to view only the Gmail DLP Events.\n\n

\n\nOnce you filter the Events to view only the Confluence Events, you can refer to the [Data Detection and Response Events](/dashboard/sdp_events.md#event-list-view) section to learn more about the available options. \n\n4. Click on any of the Events to view details of an Event. You may click anywhere in the row of an Event that you wish to inspect. Details will be present via a side panel.\n\n## Event Actions\n\nNightfall allows you to take various action on Events. When you take an action on an Event, the status of the Event changes accordingly. To learn more about Event status, refer to the [Event Status](/dashboard/sdp_events/status.md) document.\n\nIn Gmail, you can take actions either from the Event list view page or the Event detail view page. On the Event list view page, you can click the ellipsis menu to view the available list of actions. \n\n

\n\nOn the Event detail view, you can view the applicable actions from the actions section at the bottom.\n\nTo view the complete list of actions, applicable to all the integrations, you can refer to the [Applying Actions on Events](/dashboard/sdp_events/event_actions.md) document. \n\nThe list of actions supported for Confluence are as follows. Some of these actions are common to other integrations as well. \n\n- **Copy Event Link**: The action copies the link to the Event. You can save or send this link to directly open the Event. This action is available only on the Event detail view.\n- **Ignore**: The ignore action flags Nightfall to ignore all the findings in the Event and may be taken if you find the findings false positive. This action marks the Event as resolved and moves it to the Resolved section. You can undo this action. \n- **Acknowledge**: You can take this action to notify other users that you have looked into this Event and will take suitable action in future. \n- **Notify Email**: This action notifies the end user who added the sensitive data file to the OneDrive about the event, through email.\n- **Notify Slack**: This action notifies the end user who added the sensitive data file to the OneDrive about the event, through Slack.\n- **Send to JIRA**: This action creates a JIRA ticket for the Event. You can pick a project and Issue type while creating the JIRA ticket and can assign the JIRA ticket to the end-user.\n- **Resolve**: This action must be taken when the sensitive data is removed completely. This action resolves the Event.\n\n***\n\n# Agent Instructions\n\nThis documentation is published with GitBook.

Markdown versions of documentation pages are available by appending `.md` to page URLs; this page is available as [Markdown](https://help.nightfall.ai/gmail/policies.md).\n\n# Nightfall Policies for Gmail\n\nDLP policies are a set of rules that include specific conditions, actions, and exceptions that monitor and filter data. DLP policies also enable you to remediate any leakage of sensitive information from within your organization.\n\n- You can set up policies to scan data that is sent through some or all applications within your organization. \n- You can configure policies and choose to not apply them all the time.\n\nBefore you define a policy or a set of policies, we recommend that you define the objectives of each policy, which can then be fulfilled when you configure the policy.\n\nHere are a few important questions to ask before configuring your policies:\n\n- What data do you plan to monitor?\n- Where within the organization do you want to monitor?\n- What should be the scope of each policy?\n- What conditions must apply for the policy to match?\n- What exceptions/exclusions can be allowed?\n- What remediation actions should the policy take?\n\nYou can now configure policies on the Gmail integration to determine which repositories are monitored, and which ones are excluded from monitoring. You can also automate the remediation actions that you want Nightfall to perform on a policy violation.\n\n## Creating Policies in Nightfall for Gmail\n\nThe process of creating policies in Nightfall consists of six stages enlisted as follows. \n\n[Integration](https://help.nightfall.ai/nightfall-ai/gmail-dlp/gmail-policies/integration)\n\n[Detection Rules](/gmail/policies/detection_rules.md)\n\n[Advanced Settings](/gmail/policies/advanced_settings.md)\n\n[Creating Policy](/gmail/policies/risk_score.md)\n\n[Managing Violations](/gmail/policies/events.md)\n\n***\n\n# Agent Instructions\n\nThis documentation is published with GitBook.

Markdown versions of documentation pages are available by appending `.md` to page URLs; this page is available as [Markdown](https://help.nightfall.ai/gmail/integration_alerts.md).\n\n# Configure Alerts for Gmail\n\nNightfall DLP for Gmail supports the configuration of alerts at the policy level and at the integration level. Alerts for Gmail can be sent to the following alert destinations.\n\n- [Slack ](https://help.nightfall.ai/sensitive-data-protection/gmail-dlp/configuring-integration-alerts#configuring-slack-as-an-alert-channel)\n- [Email](https://help.nightfall.ai/sensitive-data-protection/gmail-dlp/configuring-integration-alerts#configuring-email-as-an-alert-channel)\n- [Webhook](https://help.nightfall.ai/sensitive-data-protection/gmail-dlp/configuring-integration-alerts#configuring-webhook-as-an-alert-channel)\n- [Jira Tickets](https://help.nightfall.ai/sensitive-data-protection/gmail-dlp/configuring-integration-alerts#configuring-jira-as-an-alert-channel)\n\n

\n\nWhen you configure alert settings at the integration level, the alert settings apply to all the policies, created for the Gmail DLP integration. However, when you configure alert settings specifically for a policy, which is created in the Gmail DLP integration, the alert settings are applicable only for that specific policy. \n\nThis document explains how to configure alerts at the integration level. To learn about how to configure alerts at the policy level, read [this document](/gmail/policies/advanced_settings.md#admin-alerting).\n\n## Prerequisites\n\n- To use Slack as an alert platform, you must first perform the required Slack configurations. You can refer to [this document](https://help.nightfall.ai/nightfall-ai/detection/setting-up-slack-as-an-alert-channel-in-nightfall) to learn more about how to configure Slack as an Alert platform. \n- To use Webhook as an alert platform, you must first perform the required Webhook configurations. You can refer to [this document](https://help.nightfall.ai/nightfall-ai/operationalizing-dlp/integrating-with-security-tools/integrating-with-siem#configuring-outgoing-webhooks)[ ](https://help.nightfall.ai/nightfall-ai/operationalizing-dlp/integrating-with-security-tools/integrating-with-siem#configuring-outgoing-webhooks)to learn more about how to configure Webhook as an Alert platform. \n- To use JIRA as an alert platform, you must have the DLP for the JIRA app installed from the [Atlassian Marketplace](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1226823/dlp-for-jira-nightfall-ai?tab=overview\\&hosting=cloud). You can read more about the DLP for JIRA integration [here](https://help.nightfall.ai/nightfall-ai/nightfall-for-jira/getting-started/installing-nightfall-for-jira). \n\n## Configure Alerts at the Integration Level \n\nYou can configure alerts at the integration level once you have installed the Nightfall for Gmail DLP integration. \n\nTo configure alerts at the integration level:\n\n1. Navigate to the Gmail DLP integration\n2. Scroll down to the **Alerting** section.\n3. You can configure one or multiple alert channels. \n\n### Configuring Slack as an Alert Channel\n\n1. To configure Slack as an alert channel, click **+ Slack channel**.\n\n

\n\n2. In the **Slack alert channel** field, enter the name of the Slack channel in which you wish to receive the alerts. \n3. Click **Save**. \n\n

\n\nA confirmation pop-up box is displayed to confirm if the Slack channel (entered in the second step) must be used only for Gmail DLP integration or all the Nightfall integrations. \n\n4. Select **No, only integration level** to use the Slack channel only for Gmail DLP, or select **Yes, please** to use the selected Slack channel for all the Nightfall integrations. \n\n

\n\n### Configuring Email as an Alert Channel\n\n1. Click **+ Email**.\n\n

\n\n2. Enter the Email ID of the recipient who should receive the notifications**.** \n3. Click **Save.** \n\n

\n\nA confirmation pop-up box is displayed to confirm if the Email ID (entered in the second step) must be used only for Gmail DLP integration or all the Nightfall integrations. \n\n4. Select **No, only integration level** to use the Slack channel only for Gmail DLP, or select **Yes, please** to use the selected Slack channel for all the Nightfall integrations. \n\n

{\n  \"service\": \"nightfall\",\n  \"test\": true,\n  \"timestamp\": \"2024-03-07T23:18:39Z\"\n}\n

\n\nThis is part of alert event consumption and can be ignored. \n{% endhint %}\n\n### **Configuring Jira as an Alert Channel**\n\n1. Click **+ Jira Ticket.**\n2. Select a JIRA project from the **Jira Project** drop-down menu.\n3. Select an issue type from the **Issue Type** drop-down menu. \n4. (Optional) Add comments to be added in the JIRA ticket. \n5. Click **Save changes**.\n\n

\n\nA confirmation pop-up box is displayed to confirm if the JIRA settings configured for the Gmail DLP integration must be applied to all the other Nightfall integrations too. \n\n6. Select **No, only integration level** to use the configurations only for Gmail DLP, or select **Yes, please** to use the selected JIRA configurations for all the Nightfall integrations. \n\n

\n\n## Configure End-User Notifications\n\nWhen an Event is triggered, Nightfall sends a notification to the end-user whose actions triggered the Event. While notifying the end-user, Nightfall also sends a text message. You can draft the text message to be sent to the end-user. This message applies to all the policies. Click **Save changes** once done.\n\n

State of existing Nightfall Violation	Developer Action on a file in GitHub repo	Automated actions due to Deduplication
No existing Event	Introduce sensitive data	New Event Created
Active Event not in a resolved state	Additional code with sensitive data pushed	Increment finding(s) in the existing Event Create an Event with all the new findings
Active Event not in a resolved state	Code with sensitive findings redacted	Number of findings in the existing Event updated If no finding remaining then the Event is marked resolved
Event is in a resolved state	Additional code with sensitive data pushed	New Event created

\n\nThe following table summarises the treatment of a GitHub violation with Deduplication in action when the developer(s) clones/merges a GitHub branch.\n\n| State of existing Nightfall Event | Developer Action on a file in GitHub repo | Automated actions due to Deduplication |\n| ------------------------------------ | ------------------------------------------------ | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |\n| No existing Event | Branch Clone | No new Events |\n| Active Event not in a resolved state | Branch Clone |

No new Events in the original branch
No Events in the cloned branch

No new Events
Existing Events from the Cloned Branch resolved

|\n\nWhen an Event is automatically resolved by the GitHub Deduplication feature (as a result of sensitive data being removed from the concerned GitHub file/repo) the log section of the Event displays a **Resolved automatically** message as shown in the following image. \n\n

\n\n## Nightfall Events\n\nTo view the on the Nightfall Console:\n\n1. Navigate to the **Detection and Response** from the left menu.\n2. (Optional) Modify the days filter to view Events prior to last 7 days. By default the Events recorded in the **Last 7 Days** are displayed.\n\n

\n\n3. Apply filters to view only the GitHub Events. \n\n

\n\nOnce you filter the Events to view only the GitHub Events, you can refer to the [Data Detection and Response Events](/dashboard/sdp_events.md#event-list-view) section to learn more about the available options. \n\n4. Click on any of the Events to view details of an Event. You may click anywhere in the row of an Event that you wish to inspect. Details will be present via a side panel.\n\n

\n\nThe side panel (or the Event detail view) is divided into three separate sections. The first section has information about the occurrence of individual findings with a preview. The third section is an activity log for the Event. Both these sections reveal information that is common across all sources/integrations. You can refer to these common sections in the [Data Detection and Response Events](/dashboard/sdp_events.md#event-detail-view) section.\n\nThe second section displays details that are source / integration specific and so the details vary from one integration to the other. \n\n## Event Actions\n\nNightfall allows you to take various action on Events. When you take an action on an Event, the status of the Event changes accordingly. To learn more about Event status, refer to the [Event Status](/dashboard/sdp_events/status.md) document.\n\nIn GitHub, you can take actions either from the Event list view page or the Event detail view page. On the Event list view page, you can click the ellipsis menu to view the available list of actions. \n\n

\n\nOn the Event detail view, you can view the applicable actions from the actions section at the bottom.\n\n

\n\nTo view the complete list of actions, applicable to all the integrations, you can refer to the [Applying Actions on Events](/dashboard/sdp_events/event_actions.md) document. \n\nThe list of actions supported for GitHub are as follows. Some of these actions are common to other integrations as well. \n\n- **Copy Event Link**: The action copies the link to the Event. You can save or send this link to directly open the Event. This action is available only on the Event detail view.\n- **View in GitHub**: This action redirects to the relevant repository that contains the sensitive data in the source GitHub. While this action is available only on the Event detail view, please note that relevant access to the document in source GitHub repository should be present.\n- **Download Original Content**: This action downloads the original content that contains sensitive data. If the content is deleted or moved to a different location within GitHub, this action fails. This action is available only on the Event detail view.\n- **Send to JIRA**: This action creates a JIRA ticket for the Event. You can pick a project and Issue type while creating the JIRA ticket and can assign the JIRA ticket to the end-user\n- **Acknowledge**: You can take this action to notify other users that you have looked into this Event and will take suitable action in future. \n- **Ignore**: The ignore action flags Nightfall to ignore all the findings in the Event and may be taken if you find the findings false positive. This action marks the Event as resolved and moves it to the Resolved section. You can undo this action. \n- **Notify Email**: This action notifies the end user who added the sensitive data in GitHub about the event, through email.\n- **Notify GitHub**: This action notifies the end user who added the sensitive data in GitHub about the event, through GitHub. To learn more about how to check notifications in GitHub, see [#viewing-notifications-in-github](#viewing-notifications-in-github \"mention\").\n- **Resolve**: This action must be taken when the sensitive data is removed completely from the source file. This action resolves the Event. \n\n## Email Notifications\n\n- When a data leak occurs, GitHub sends an Email notification to end users, if end users have configured Email as a Notification method in their GitHub account.\n- Additionally, if Nightfall admins have configured Email Notification in [Admin Alerting](https://help.nightfall.ai/nightfall-ai/nightfall-for-github/configuring-policies/advanced-settings#admin-alerting), Nightfall admins receive the Email notification. \n- If Nightfall admins have configured Email Notification in the Automation section of [End user notification](https://help.nightfall.ai/nightfall-ai/nightfall-for-github/configuring-policies/advanced-settings#end-user-notification)[ ](https://help.nightfall.ai/nightfall-ai/nightfall-for-github/configuring-policies/advanced-settings#end-user-notification)settings, end users receive an email from Nightfall. This Email allows end users to take actions from within the Email.\n\nThe Email received from by Nightfall Admins and end-users (if configured), looks as follows. \n\n

\n\n## Viewing Notifications in GitHub\n\nIf you have configured GitHub as a Notification in the Automation section of [End User Notification](https://help.nightfall.ai/nightfall-ai/nightfall-for-github/configuring-policies/advanced-settings#end-user-notification), end users can view the violation notification from within GitHub. \n\nOpen the file that triggered the violation. A comment is generated by Nightfall which also has the remediation options. The available options are based on the settings you configured in the Automation section of [End User Notification](https://help.nightfall.ai/nightfall-ai/nightfall-for-github/configuring-policies/advanced-settings#end-user-notification). \n\n{% hint style=\"info\" %}\nIf an end-user adds sensitive information in a feature branch and merges it with the main branch, Nightfall comments on this pull request. \n\nIf an end-user adds sensitive information in the main branch and commits it, Nightfall comments on this GitHub commit. \n\nThe Nightfall comment is created by **nightfall-for-github** bot. \n{% endhint %}\n\nIn the following image, the Nightfall comment has two options; **Report as False Positive** and **Report as False Positive with Business Justification**. These options are displayed because they were enabled in the [End-User Remediation](https://help.nightfall.ai/nightfall-ai/nightfall-for-github/configuring-policies/advanced-settings#end-user-remediation) section of the policy.\n\n

\n\nAdditionally, if end-users have configured GitHub to receive Notifications, they can also view the violation under the Notifications page. This Notification also tags the end-user. \n\nTo view the Violation message under GitHub notifications, end-users must execute the following steps. \n\n1. Click the GitHub Notifications icon.\n2. Select the Notification which has a tag (mention).\n3. Scroll down to view the Notification.\n\n

\n\n### Enabling Notifications in GitHub\n\nTo view Notifications from within GitHub end-users must enable the GitHub notifications. The steps to enable GitHub notifications are as follows. \n\n1. Click on your GitHub account icon and select **Settings**.\n2. Click **Notifications** from the left pane.\n3. Under **Subscriptions**, enable GitHub notifications for the **Participating, @mentions and custom** section.\n4. Click **Save**. \n\n

It lives in the cloud and keeps an eye out for any signs of data leaks. Imagine it as a watchful friend who ensures that sensitive information doesn’t accidentally slip out. Nightfall ensures that your organization’s secrets stay safe.\n\nYou can learn more about Nightfall from [this document](https://help.nightfall.ai/nightfall-ai/introduction_to_nightfall/untitled).\n\n## Why am I receiving Notifications from Nightfall?[](https://help.nightfall.ai/operationalizing_nightfall_dlp/faqs_end_users#why-am-i-receiving-notifications-from-nightfall)\n\nHere are some everyday situations where Nightfall steps in to protect your data:\n\nGoogle Docs, Sheets, and Slides:\n\nIf you create a document, spreadsheet, or presentation with sensitive content (such as financial data or personal info), Nightfall alerts your security team which in turn may choose to alert you.\n\nMessaging Apps (Slack, MS Teams): When you send messages containing sensitive information (maybe a credit card number or confidential project details), Nightfall gives your security team a heads-up which in turn may choose to alert you.\n\n**Zendesk Tickets:**\n\nEven in customer support interactions, if you accidentally add sensitive info in comments or descriptions, Nightfall intervenes.\n\n**Code Commit on GitHub:**\n\nWhen you’re working on code and accidentally include sensitive details (like passwords or private keys), Nightfall raises a flag. Your security team might choose to notify you of such an event.\n\nThese are a few examples of how Nightfall helps your organization protect sensitive data. Your security or data governance team may decide to send you additional information about best practices for your situation, invite you to take action, or for you to provide additional context to the situation.\n\n## What's included in Nightfall notifications?[](https://help.nightfall.ai/operationalizing_nightfall_dlp/faqs_end_users#whats-included-in-nightfall-notifications)\n\nYou should expect the following information in a Nightfall notification:\n\nPolicy Information\n\nA custom message from your organization often includes information about the data policy and best practices related to the sensitive data discovered.\n\nEvent Information\n\nDetails about the type of sensitive data including the location and time of the event\n\nCall to action\n\nA list of actions you can take to ensure compliance with your organization's policy or the ability to submit a business justification or report a false positive.\n\n## What should I do now?[](https://help.nightfall.ai/operationalizing_nightfall_dlp/faqs_end_users#what-should-i-do-now)\n\nOnce you identify the potentially sensitive data, you can take appropriate action. The Nightfall alert displays the actions you can take. The category of actions is as follows.\n\n- **Report as False Positive**:- If you are confident that the potentially sensitive data identified by Nightfall is not sensitive, you can choose either the Report False Positive or the Report False Positive with Business Justification actions.\n\n- **Remove Sensitive Data or Access**:- If the Nightfall alert identified sensitive data you must take action immediately. The available actions vary for each platform. Some examples of these actions are:\n\n - For Slack, you can **Redact** the sensitive information or **Delete** the message.\n\n - For GitHub or Zendesk, you can choose to either **Redact** or **Remove** the sensitive data.\n\n - For Google Drive, you can choose to **Remove access to external users**, **Restrict Link**, or **Disable Download**.\n\n - For Notion, you can either **Redact**, **Remove access to external users**, or **Restrict Link**.\n\n**Note**: The available actions depend on the settings configured by your Nightfall administrator. If you are unable to view a specific remedial action, contact your Nightfall administrator.\n\n## Why do I keep receiving these alerts?[](https://help.nightfall.ai/operationalizing_nightfall_dlp/faqs_end_users#why-do-i-keep-receiving-these-alerts)\n\n**New notifications**\n\nYour organization may choose to notify users associated with a potential sensitive data leak or exposure risk. If you think that you have received a notification by error, make sure to report it as a false positive if this option is available to you on the notification or reach out to your data governance and security team.\n\n**Reminder notifications**\n\nWhen the notification you receive contains a set of actions you can take, you will keep receiving reminders until you take action, submit a business justification or report as a false positive..\n\n## What just happened? Why did my content get redacted?[](https://help.nightfall.ai/operationalizing_nightfall_dlp/faqs_end_users#what-just-happened-why-did-my-content-get-redacted)\n\nIf something you sent or created was automatically removed, this means Nightfall detected what your organization considers a piece of sensitive information. Nightfall will not remove or redact any content that your Nightfall Administrator did not explicitly instruct it to detect.\n\n## What can I do if my content is redacted, but shouldn’t have been?[](https://help.nightfall.ai/operationalizing_nightfall_dlp/faqs_end_users#what-can-i-do-if-my-content-is-redacted-but-shouldnt-have-been)\n\nIf you are confident that any data redacted by Nightfall is not sensitive, contact your Nightfall Administrator. If the redacted data is sensitive, you need not take any further action but adhere to more safe sharing practices in the future.\n\n## What are the best practices I should adopt?[](https://help.nightfall.ai/operationalizing_nightfall_dlp/faqs_end_users#what-are-the-best-practices-i-should-adopt)\n\nSome of the best practices Nightfall recommends are:\n\n- Be overly cautious when sharing active credentials only through approved applications or channels. If you wish to share dummy API keys or testing credentials, notify your organization's Nightfall Administrator.\n\n- Thoroughly check if any content that you are about to publish or share contains any sensitive data.\n\n## What is Sensitive Data?[](https://help.nightfall.ai/operationalizing_nightfall_dlp/faqs_end_users#what-is-sensitive-data)\n\nSensitive data includes information that requires special protection due to its potential impact if exposed. Examples include personally identifiable information (PII), payment card information (PCI), and protected health information (PHI). The full list varies based on the organization and the industry in which it operates.\n\n## Why Is Protecting Sensitive Data Crucial?[](https://help.nightfall.ai/operationalizing_nightfall_dlp/faqs_end_users#why-is-protecting-sensitive-data-crucial)\n\nSensitive data leaks or breaches can lead to loss of trust, financial repercussions, and legal consequences. Everyone in the organization must prioritize safeguarding this data.\n","2026-08-04T17:12:54.977Z","2026-08-04T18:29:08.308Z","2fd81132-9cf3-460e-94c7-c2546a841f8a",[],[],[],"FAQs | Nightfall Documentation","faqs-nightfall-documentation","https://help.nightfall.ai/slack/slack-faqs","For the complete documentation index, see [llms.txt](https://help.nightfall.ai/llms.txt).

Further, [Platform Events limits](https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/atlas.en-us.platform_events.meta/platform_events/platform_events_limits_default.htm) are shared across all workflows that leverage Platform Events and, per Salesforce, are replinished on a 24 hour rolling basis.\n\nEvery time an update happens on one of the objects monitoried by Nightfall DLP for Salesfoce, Nightfall's Salesforce package triggers an event that is queued in the Salesforce orgs Platform Events messaging queue. Subsequently Nightfall DLP Platform retrieves the event and the payload from the Platform Events queue and processes the update.\n\n#### How Salesforce Platform Events limits affect Nightfall DLP for Salesforce processing?[](https://help.nightfall.ai/salesforce/faqs#how-salesforce-platform-events-limits-affect-nightfall-dlp-for-salesforce-processing)\n\nNightfall understands the criticality of Platform Events for Salesforce workflows and has defined a High Threshold and a Low Threshold for Platform Events usage on the customer's Salesforce org. If the Platform Events usage on the customer's Salesforce org breaches the High Threshold then Nightfall DLP for Salesforce will pause scan. Nightfall DLP for Salesforce will resume scan only when the Platform Events usage on the customer's Salesforce org goes below the Low Threshold. This way Nightfall DLP for Salesforce behaves as a model enterprise application and ensures that critical Salesforce workflows (like order processing) are prioritised over sensitive data scan.\n\nPlease reach out to your customer success manager for further details.\n\n#### I selected Delete and Redact in my Policy. Is that a problem?[](https://help.nightfall.ai/salesforce/faqs#i-selected-delete-and-redact-in-my-policy.-is-that-a-problem)\n\nIf you opted for both Redact and Delete actions in a policy for a set of objects and fields, Delete takes precedence over redact.\n\nAll potential sensitive tokens are automatically deleted from the configured objects and fields.\n\n#### On a single object, I want to configure a policy to automatically delete all credit card data, but auto-redact SSN.[](https://help.nightfall.ai/salesforce/faqs#on-a-single-object-i-want-to-configure-a-policy-to-automatically-delete-all-credit-card-data-but-aut)\n\nYou can create two policies on the object;\n\n- one policy with a detection rule for the SSN detector, with redaction as the automated action.\n\n- Another policy with a detection rule for credit card detector with delete as the automation action.\n\n#### Why does Nightfall only scan emails that are sent, replied, forwarded but not the draft emails?[](https://help.nightfall.ai/salesforce/faqs#why-does-nightfall-only-scan-emails-that-are-sent-replied-forwarded-but-not-the-draft-emails)\n\nSalesforce may save emails in draft stage multiple times either because of the user action or automatically. Every save triggers a Salesforce event which causes Nightfall to scane the contents of the email draft if there is a policy to scan emails objects. This can lead to a situation where multiple violations are reported for the same sensitive data if the email is saved multiple times in the draft stage.\n\nSo, Nightfall has disabled scanning of emails as long as they are in draft stage. However, emails will continue to be be scanned when other operations happen, for examples emails are sent, replied and forwarded. The user can reach out to Nightfall if they wish Nightfall to scan the drafts too, but it should be noted that as described above, this can lead to the same findings getting flagged across violations whenever the draft is saved.\n\n#### Nightfall doesn’t remediate sensitive information from Email Message object. How do I solve this?[](https://help.nightfall.ai/salesforce/faqs#nightfall-doesnt-remediate-sensitive-information-from-email-message-object.-how-do-i-solve-this)\n\nEmail message is an immutable object in Salesforce. Therefore, Nightfall cannot modify the object record. You can delete the email from within Salesforce, once you receive a notification.\n\n**I received a violation notification. However, the information was removed by the user in Salesforce. How will auto remediation respond?**\n\nIf the object does not contain sensitive information at the time of remediation, Nightfall will not remediate any data. Nightfall will re-scan the violated object and fields before performing any remediation.\n\n#### I performed manual remediation on an object record after the object was deleted from Salesforce. How do I know if it was successful?[](https://help.nightfall.ai/salesforce/faqs#i-performed-manual-remediation-on-an-object-record-after-the-object-was-deleted-from-salesforce.-how)\n\nNightfall detects that the object record does not exist anymore, and will stop remediation. A notification is sent to you.\n\n#### How do I know if remediation action was successful?[](https://help.nightfall.ai/salesforce/faqs#how-do-i-know-if-remediation-action-was-successful)\n\nNightfall sends notifications for remediation action it performs.\n\n#### A new version of the attachment was uploaded, can I remediate the previous version which had sensitive information?[](https://help.nightfall.ai/salesforce/faqs#a-new-version-of-the-attachment-was-uploaded-can-i-remediate-the-previous-version-which-had-sensitiv)\n\nNo, Salesforce does not provide the option to delete specific versions of a file. Further, Salesforce only allows deletion of all the versions of an attachment. You can manually delete the attachment in Salesforce.\n\nIf the version was updated, and the object clears the scan, Nightfall will not delete the attachment and issues a notification with this information.\n\n#### If I have Einstein Activity Capture configured which synchronizes my mail and I see them in Salesforce. Can Nightfall detect sensitive information in these objects too?[](https://help.nightfall.ai/salesforce/faqs#if-i-have-einstein-activity-capture-configured-which-synchronizes-my-mail-and-i-see-them-in-salesfor)\n\nNo. Nightfall does not have the capability to detect sensitive information in any entity synced by Einstein Activity Capture.\n\n#### What does the Nightfall DLP webhook notification for Salesforce look like?[](https://help.nightfall.ai/salesforce/faqs#what-does-the-nightfall-dlp-webhook-notification-for-salesforce-look-like)\n\nPlease see some example webhook responses below:\n\n- Violations\n\n- Manual Remediation\n\n- Automated Remediation\n\n#### Violation[](https://help.nightfall.ai/salesforce/faqs#violation)\n\n#### Manual Remediation[](https://help.nightfall.ai/salesforce/faqs#manual-remediation)\n\n#### Automated Remediation[](https://help.nightfall.ai/salesforce/faqs#automated-remediation)\n","2026-08-04T17:12:48.457Z","2026-08-04T18:28:51.976Z","22fc0351-ad62-42c1-884d-bf910594032d",[],[],[],"FAQs | Developer APIs | Nightfall Documentation","faqs-developer-apis-nightfall-documentation","https://help.nightfall.ai/developer-api/faqs","For the complete documentation index, see [llms.txt](https://help.nightfall.ai/llms.txt).

This will be highly dependent on your organization’s unique circumstances and needs.\n\nHere are some guiding questions:\n\n- What sensitive data would you like to detect and which are the highest priorities for each SaaS application?\n\n- What level of risk are you comfortable with? Would you like to alert on only the most risky findings or have visibility into even low-risk data types that may not warrant action?\n\n- How much operational load are you willing to take on? The more granular your approach, the less human discretion will be required in the filtering and remediation steps.\n\n- What are the requirements of any compliance regimes you are accountable to?\n\n- What user strategy would you like to implement?\n\n - Some potential answers:\n\n - Minimal impact on user experience, only alerting and monitoring to security staff and notifications to end users to guide towards remediation?\n\n - Educating and empowering users about DLP best practices?\n\n - Enforcing DLP through strict controls and automation?\n\n### Testing Detection Rules[](https://help.nightfall.ai/detection_platform/evaluate_nightfall_detection#testing-detection-rules)\n\nOnce you have a sense of your goals, we recommend that you optimize your detection during a phased, iterative implementation - start small, and broaden gradually. Typically, the biggest pitfall customers want to avoid during implementation is to get flooded by too many low-priority alerts that become unmanageable - which is typically caused by taking too broad of an approach to detection. By taking the time to optimize your detection gradually during the first few weeks, your team will be set up for ongoing success.\n\nFor this reason, we have created our Detection Wizard, which is a resource that will recommend the exact configuration to suit your use cases. You can shortcut a lot of legwork in choosing and fine-tuning rules by immediately identifying the recommended and validated configuration that matches your use case.\n\nThere is generally little reason to deviate from the Wizard’s recommendations at the outset, but your use case may warrant fine-tuning and broadening your detection logic over time:\n\nWe recommend that you select just a few detectors to start out with as recommended by the Wizard, in order to optimize detection of the most critical and high-risk information types.\n\n- Once a few detectors and initial detection rules are in place, test some sample data and monitor the results. We suggest you evaluate metrics such as false positive and false negative rates, and assess whether the volume of alerts/results is manageable by your team. You may adjust parameters such as Minimum Confidence and Minimum Number of Findings to optimize the level of alerts through your testing process.\n\n- Then, continue to iterate and modify your detection by adding and optimizing a few more detectors as required. Focus on starting with tighter detection rules (higher confidence levels), and slowly relax or broaden the rules over time.\n\n### Sample Data[](https://help.nightfall.ai/detection_platform/evaluate_nightfall_detection#sample-data)\n\nNightfall offers a library of [Sample Data](https://help.nightfall.ai/nightfall-ai/nightfall-detection-and-policy-templates/nightfall-sample-data-sets) that we recommend for evaluating DLP technologies.\n\n### Evaluating Detection During Tests vs. in the Wild[](https://help.nightfall.ai/detection_platform/evaluate_nightfall_detection#evaluating-detection-during-tests-vs.-in-the-wild)\n\nIt’s important to understand that the rate of true positive data “in the wild” tends to be significantly lower than true positive data in a test environment. That’s because, in a test environment, many occurrences of sensitive information will be intentionally planted.\n\nAs a result, test environments are typically most useful for optimizing sensitivity, or the true positive rate - detection is optimized toward identifying sensitive information as sensitive. While this helps ensure that occurrences of sensitive information are, in fact, correctly flagged, it also means detection is somewhat skewed toward flagging information as sensitive, thus increasing the potential for false positives (see [the tradeoff between sensitivity and specificity](https://help.nightfall.ai/nightfall-ai/detection/how-detection-works#understanding-accuracy)).\n\nWhat this means for you is that if you fine-tune a detection rule in a test environment, you may over-index towards sensitivity rather than specificity, which can result in a higher degree of false positives in the wild. As a result, we highly recommend evaluating detection rules in a production environment rather than a test environment, when possible.\n","2026-08-04T17:12:51.814Z","2026-08-04T18:29:06.349Z","6ccdd9cd-6618-430f-a32b-b8fe664f23af",[],[],[],"Errors | Developer APIs | Nightfall Documentation","errors-developer-apis-nightfall-documentation","https://help.nightfall.ai/developer-api/key-concepts/errors","While using Nightfall's Scan API, you may encounter some of the common errors outlined below.

Detectors may also be defined with regular expressions or dictionaries. Their accuracy may be further refined with exclusion rules and context rules. Whether a Detector is triggered may be controlled by a minimum confidence threshold per Detector and minimum number of findings per Detector as set on a Detection Rule.\n\nThe built-in set of Detectors cover a number of different categories of data, including:\n\n- Standard PII (e.g. social security number, driver's license number, ID card image)\n\n- PCI (Credit Card Number, credit card image)\n\n- Healthcare (e.g. PHI, US Medicare Beneficiary Number)\n\n- Finance - Banking (e.g. SWIFT code, IBAN code, US bank routing number)\n\n- Network (e.g. an IP Address)\n\nThe full set is enumerated in the [Detector Glossary](https://help.nightfall.ai/nightfall-ai/detection-engine/choosing-detectors/nightfall-detector-glossary).\n\n### Custom Detectors[](https://help.nightfall.ai/developer-api/key-concepts/key_terms#custom-detectors)\n\nNightfall also supports [RE2 regexes](https://github.com/google/re2/wiki/Syntax) and word lists for any custom detectors that you may want to implement.\n\nOver time, we've aggregated the following [regex library](https://help.nightfall.ai/nightfall-ai/detection-engine/regex-library#regex-library), which you're welcome to select from to save you some time. Please note that a regular expression is an established yet limited method that searches for pre-defined patterns, so your mileage may vary.\n\nYou can test regular expressions [here](https://regex101.com/).\n\nYou can input custom detectors in two ways: directly in the Nightfall [Dashboard](https://app.nightfall.ai/) by navigating to **Detectors** → **New Detector** → **Regular expression**, or [define them inline](https://docs.nightfall.ai/docs/creating-an-inline-detection-rule)[.](https://help.nightfall.ai/developer-api/key-concepts/scanning_features/inline_detection_rules)\n\n### Exclusion Rules[](https://help.nightfall.ai/developer-api/key-concepts/key_terms#exclusion-rules)\n\nAn exclusion rule is a regular expression or word list that will be used once a Detector is triggered by its primary expression or word list to eliminate false positives.\n\nFor instance, you may have a Detector designed to detect phone numbers. However, you may have a particular set of phone numbers that you use for testing purposes that are known not to be valid (e.g. they start with the prefix 555) and this should be ignored. Adding an exclusion rule would allow you to prevent those matches from being returned by the API.\n\nSee: [Using Exclusion Rules](https://help.nightfall.ai/developer-api/key-concepts/key_terms#exclusion-rules)\n\n### Context Rules[](https://help.nightfall.ai/developer-api/key-concepts/key_terms#context-rules)\n\nContext Rules are additional matching expressions for a Detector that may be used to adjust the confidence score of a match.\n\nYou may provide a regular expression and the number of leading or trailing characters within which a match of that expression must occur in order to adjust the confidence level to a particular level.\n\nFor instance, if you found a sequence that appeared to be a social security number based on its length or formatting, you might boost the confidence score if it was preceded by the text like “SSN” or “Social Security Number.”\n\n### Returning Surrounding Context[](https://help.nightfall.ai/developer-api/key-concepts/key_terms#returning-surrounding-context)\n\nYou may request that a sequence of bytes of a given length be provided from before and after the text that triggers a Detection Rule.\n\nThis information can help you better understand whether or not something is an actual violation by observing the circumstances within which the detected text was found.\n\nYou are limited to a maximum of 40 bytes of this context text preceding and trailing the match for a total of 80 bytes overall.\n\nSee: [Using Context](https://help.nightfall.ai/developer-api/key-concepts/scanning_features/context_rules)\n\n## Detection Rules[](https://help.nightfall.ai/developer-api/key-concepts/key_terms#detection-rules)\n\nDetection Rules are aggregations of Detectors that are assigned a minimum confidence level. The identifiers of Detection Rules are used as a parameter to the API.\n\nYou may create Detection Rules as described in the section Creating Detection Rules and use their identifier as part of API calls to scan content.\n\nAlternatively you may specify Detection Rules [programmatically](https://help.nightfall.ai/developer-api/key-concepts/scanning_features/inline_detection_rules) in each API call, as described in the scan method documentation below.\n\nA Detection Rule is composed of a list of Detectors with which you wish to scan each request payload, where any or all Detectors may be satisfied in order to trigger the rule. You can add up to 50 total Detectors with a limit of 30 regular expression type custom detectors.\n\nAdditionally, each Detector in the Detection Rule is assigned a “minimum confidence” level (see [below](https://docs.nightfall.ai/docs/entities-and-terms-to-know#confidence-levels) and a minimum number of findings to determine if the Detection Rule should be considered triggered.\n\n### Confidence Levels[](https://help.nightfall.ai/developer-api/key-concepts/key_terms#confidence-levels)\n\nDetection results will be returned with one of the following confidence values.\n\nIn practice, the API will only return detections assigned a POSSIBLE or higher confidence level.\n\n- VERY\\_LIKELY (recommended)\n\n- LIKELY\n\n- POSSIBLE\n\n- UNLIKELY\n\n- VERY\\_UNLIKELY\n\nLearn more about what different confidence levels mean and how to choose the right minimum confidence level for your detection rule [**here**](https://help.nightfall.ai/nightfall-ai/detection-engine/detection-engine-faqs/what-do-different-confidence-levels-mean).\n\n## Policies[](https://help.nightfall.ai/developer-api/key-concepts/key_terms#policies)\n\nPolicies allow you to create templates for the most common workflows by unifying a set of Detection Rules with the actions to be taken when those rules are triggered, including:\n\n- automated actions such as redaction of findings\n\n- alerting through webhooks\n\nOnce defined, a Policy may be used in requests to the Nightfall API, such as calls to scan file uploads, though automated redactions are not available for uploaded files at this time.\n","2026-08-04T17:12:59.401Z","2026-08-04T17:12:59.435Z","79237d16-5abb-481b-9327-b1043b6ae4e7",[],[],[],"Endpoint | Nightfall AI Knowledge Base","endpoint-nightfall-ai-knowledge-base","https://kb.nightfall.ai/collections/8780305235-endpoint","Nightfall macOS Agent: How to Add the Nightfall Chrome ExtensionSettings to an Existing Non-Nightfall Profile\n\n›\n","2026-08-03T17:22:49.920Z","2026-08-04T19:49:19.931Z","5f1ffde2-f84d-436c-9d4f-1c8ec0a05ef4",[],[],[],"Encryption Events Page | Data Encryption | Nightfall Documentation","encryption-events-page-data-encryption-nightfall-documentation","https://help.nightfall.ai/data-encryption/gmail/encryption-events-page","# Encryption Events Page | Data Encryption\n\nThe Encryption events page displays all the encryption events registered by Gmail. An event is triggered when an encryption policy is violated. To learn more about configuring encryption policies, refer to the [Creating Policies for Encryption](https://help.nightfall.ai/data-encryption/gmail/creating-policies-for-encryption) document.\n\n**Important**\n\nAn encryption event is generated only when both of the following conditions are met.\n\n- Nightfall admin creates one or more encryption policies.\n\n- An end-user (who matches the scope for at least one of the policies) sends an email with encryption enabled.\n\nTo navigate to the encryption events page in Nightfall, click **Data Encryption** from the left menu.\n\nOnce you land on the Encryption page, Nightfall displays the encryption events for the last 7 days. You can view that the date filter also displays **Last 7 Days**.\n\nTo view the historic encryption events, click the date filter, set the required time period and click **Apply**.\n\n## Events Columns[](https://help.nightfall.ai/data-encryption/gmail/encryption-events-page#events-columns)\n\nThe encryption events page consists of the following columns.\n\n## Searching Events[](https://help.nightfall.ai/data-encryption/gmail/encryption-events-page#searching-events)\n\nThe Events encryption page provides a search bar. You can use the search operators to search a specific event. Nightfall provides multiple operators to search. When you click the search bar, five operators are displayed. You can click the **View all operators** button to view all the available search operators.\n\nFor example, you can use the **user\\_email** search operator to search for events that were generated as a result of emails sent by a specific sender.

For instance, if you apply the encrypt action, the email that triggered the event is encrypted and the status of the event changes to **Encrypted**.\n\nYou can apply an action from the ellipsis menu on the Events page\n\nAlternatively, you can also apply an action from the [Event Detail View](https://help.nightfall.ai/data-encryption/gmail/encryption-events-page#event-detail-view) page.\n\nThe actions that you can perform on an encryption Event are as follows.\n\n### Set Expiration[](https://help.nightfall.ai/data-encryption/gmail/encryption-events-page#set-expiration)\n\nThis action allows you to set an expiration date for the email Recipients cannot view the email after the set expiration period. If an expiration period is already set by the end-user or through automated actions, you can still override the expiration period and set a new expiration period.\n\n### Disable Forward[](https://help.nightfall.ai/data-encryption/gmail/encryption-events-page#disable-forward)\n\nThis action disables the recipient's ability to forward emails.\n\n### Persistent Protection[](https://help.nightfall.ai/data-encryption/gmail/encryption-events-page#persistent-protection)\n\nThis action prevents end-users from downloading any attachments or copying the contents of the attachments.\n\n### Resolve[](https://help.nightfall.ai/data-encryption/gmail/encryption-events-page#resolve)\n\nThis action resolves the Event. You must apply this action when a suitable remediation action has been implemented.\n\n## Event Detail View[](https://help.nightfall.ai/data-encryption/gmail/encryption-events-page#event-detail-view)\n\nThe Event detail view page displays various details of a specific event. You must click the required event to open the detail view window. The Event detail view displays the following details.\n\n## Encryption Event History[](https://help.nightfall.ai/data-encryption/gmail/encryption-events-page#encryption-event-history)\n\nThe event history section is a log book for the Events. It displays the series of actions that were taken. By default, the first log message recorded is the Event creation and the second log message displays that the email was encrypted by the sender.\n\nOnce the recipient decrypts the Email and view it, a new log message is displayed as follows.\n\nAs you perform various actions on the Email or the Event, the log message is recorded for each action as follows.\n\nAt the end of the event section, Nightfall provides a text box. You can add comments in the text box and save them for future use.

Entity Detectors**[](https://help.nightfall.ai/detection_platform/detectors#id-1.-entity-detectors)\n\nEntity Detectors identify **specific pieces of sensitive information**—such as an SSN, a driver’s license number, credit card number, password, or an api key —where the format is known and can be validated.\n\nEntity Detectors use:\n\n- Pattern recognition\n\n- Natural-language context\n\n- Validation logic\n\n- ML-based disambiguation\n\nThese detectors are ideal when you need precise identification of well-defined data types (e.g., U.S. Social Security Numbers, credit card numbers, or country-specific passport IDs).\n\n#### **Examples of When Entity Detectors Are Useful**[](https://help.nightfall.ai/detection_platform/detectors#examples-of-when-entity-detectors-are-useful)\n\n- Detecting employees’ personal data in outbound messages\n\n- Preventing customer PII leaks (e.g., driver's license numbers)\n\n- Flagging financial identifiers in logs or repositories\n\n- Monitoring exposed secrets or API keys\n\nEntity Detectors answer the question: **“Does this content contain PII, PCI, PHI, or credentials?”**\n\n## **2.** File Classifiers[](https://help.nightfall.ai/detection_platform/detectors#id-2.-file-classifiers)\n\nFile Classifiers identify intellectual property and confidential documents—your organization’s **crown jewels**—based on a file’s **content, structure, and semantic meaning**, not just the presence of individual data types like PII or API keys.\n\nInstead of asking _“Does this file contain a sensitive string?”_, File Classifiers answer a more important question:\n\n> **“What type of document is this, and how sensitive is it?”**\n\n#### What File Classifiers Detect[](https://help.nightfall.ai/detection_platform/detectors#what-file-classifiers-detect)\n\nFile Classifiers are designed to identify entire **document types**, including:\n\n- Proprietary source code and internal algorithms\n\n- Confidential business documents and internal reports\n\n- Unreleased product materials and R\\&D artifacts\n\n- Financial statements, forecasts, tax files, and regulatory drafts\n\n- Legal agreements, contracts, and NDAs\n\n- Patient and medical records\n\n- Customer lists and account data\n\n- Images of physical documents (e.g., passports, IDs, credit cards)\n\n#### How File Classification Works[](https://help.nightfall.ai/detection_platform/detectors#how-file-classification-works)\n\nTo classify files accurately, Nightfall analyzes signals across the full document, including:\n\n- Writing style and technical terminology\n\n- Domain-specific language (legal, engineering, HR, finance, healthcare)\n\n- File structure (headings, tables, templates, layouts)\n\n- Semantic meaning at the paragraph and document level\n\n- Visual elements in scanned or image-based documents\n\n#### Why This Matters[](https://help.nightfall.ai/detection_platform/detectors#why-this-matters)\n\nBy understanding **what a document is**, not just **what it contains**, File Classifiers enable you to detect and protect your most business-critical assets from:\n\n- Accidental sharing\n\n- Insider risk\n\n- Malicious exfiltration\n\nThis approach closes the gap where traditional, entity-based DLP falls short.\n\nTo view the detectors of a specific category, click the category name. All the Nightfall detectors' category names are highlighted in the above image.\n\nFor the complete list of all the detectors present in all the categories, you can view the [Nightfall Detector Glossary](https://help.nightfall.ai/detection_platform/detection_glossary) document.\n\nNow that you are aware of all the available detectors, you can choose to use any of the existing Nightfall detectors or create your detector specific to your organization's requirements. If you are not sure of which Nightfall detector to use, view the [Choosing a Nightfall Detector](https://help.nightfall.ai/detection_platform/choosing_detectors) document.\n\nIf Nightfal detectors can address your organization's requirements and you do not wish to create any custom detectors, you can refer to the [Create Detection Rules](https://help.nightfall.ai/detection_platform/create_detection_rules) document, to learn about how to add detectors to a detection rule.\n\nIf Nightfall detectors cannot address your organization's requirements, you can create your own detector(s) or customize a Nightfall detector. You can refer to the [Creating Custom Detectors](https://help.nightfall.ai/detection_platform/custom_detectors) document to learn about custom detectors.\n","2026-08-04T17:12:47.258Z","2026-08-04T18:29:05.928Z","d6ebe5a1-49db-4951-94a2-3539eaf063d4",[],[],[],"Detection Rules | Nightfall Documentation","detection-rules-nightfall-documentation","https://help.nightfall.ai/nightfall_policy_templates/detection_rules","To view the recommended configurations to apply to different use cases, you are welcome to leverage the [**Detection Wizard**](https://playground.nightfall.ai/detection-wizard) in the Nightfall Playground.

Machine learning models have the ability to automatically learn and improve from experience, without being explicitly programmed - giving them broader scope and higher accuracy than hard-programmed models (such as r[egular expressions](https://help.nightfall.ai/detection_platform/faq/regex_library)).\n\n## **How do Nightfall’s detectors leverage machine learning?**[](https://help.nightfall.ai/detection_platform/overview_platform#how-do-nightfalls-detectors-leverage-machine-learning)\n\nNightfall’s detectors are trained via machine learning to recognize many potential permutations of sensitive data tokens, and also to recognize and assess the surrounding context. The ability to recognize a variety of data structures and context gives Nightfall’s detection far more scope and accuracy than traditional regular expression (regex)-based detection. Nightfall’s internal team of machine learning engineers and data scientists are continuously developing new machine learning-based detectors, and they also handle the ongoing maintenance and training of our detection engine to continually improve accuracy and results.\n\n## **Understanding Accuracy**[](https://help.nightfall.ai/detection_platform/overview_platform#understanding-accuracy)\n\nA little background on measuring accuracy will be helpful to understand before you embark on your detector optimization journey. Accuracy is the ability of a detector to correctly flag sensitive content and not flag content that is not sensitive.\n\nNo detector is 100% accurate, and it is possible to have a discrepancy between information that is actually sensitive, and information that is flagged by a detector as sensitive. For example, a detector may incorrectly assess a piece of sensitive content as nonsensitive (this would be a false positive). The various result types you may get, based on the actual versus assessed sensitivity of content, are illustrated below.\n\n**Accuracy = (TP + TN) / (TP + TN + FP + FN)**\n\n**Sensitivity = TP / (TP + FN)**\n\n**Specificity = TN / (FP + TN)**\n\nYour organization will, of course, want sensitive data detection to be as accurate as possible. However, it’s important to understand that there is always a tradeoff between accurately identifying true positives (sensitivity) versus accurately identifying true negatives (specificity).\n\n- Sensitivity (also known as: recall, hit rate, or true positive rate \\[TPR]) is the ability of a detector to correctly identify content with sensitive findings.\n\n- Specificity (also known as: selectivity, true negative rate \\[TNR]) is the ability of a detector to correctly identify content without sensitive data.\n\nThe tradeoff between sensitivity and specificity occurs because you must choose whether to optimize a detector toward or away from flagging information. Higher sensitivities mean lower specificities and vice versa. For example, to optimize for sensitivity, you may enable more detectors at lower minimum confidences to catch more true positives. In doing so, you will open yourself up to more false positives, which will lower your specificity.\n\nAs a result, each organization should spend time optimizing its detectors to strike the right balance between sensitivity and specificity.\n\n## **Confidence Levels**[](https://help.nightfall.ai/detection_platform/overview_platform#confidence-levels)\n\nA confidence level represents Nightfall’s confidence in the accuracy of a given detection. Each detector is a unique model and will have its own confidence level profile. For details on how confidence level is determined for a given detector, please reach out to us.\n\nConfidence may be any of the following values corresponding to the given confidence intervals:\n\nEach info type is unique, so it is not possible to dictate that what yields a “Very Likely” match for one detector, will yield a “Very Likely” result for another. Nonetheless, we can provide some high-level guidance. Generally speaking, higher confidence detections may have certain features that increase confidence in the detection being accurate - some examples of the features include:\n\n- Formatting of token\n\n- Passes validation functions\n\n- Passes substring checks\n\n- Context clues that are indicative of that info type\n\n- Model scoring\n","2026-08-04T17:12:51.667Z","2026-08-04T18:29:06.265Z","7f438621-d976-4f69-a429-eb3630d3326e",[],[],[],"Detection Platform FAQs | Nightfall Documentation","detection-platform-faqs-nightfall-documentation","https://help.nightfall.ai/detection_platform/faq","For the complete documentation index, see [llms.txt](https://help.nightfall.ai/llms.txt).

You'll build familiarity with the following tools and frameworks: Python, Flask, Nightfall, Ngrok, Jinja, Render.\n\n## Key Concepts[](https://help.nightfall.ai/developer-api/nightfall-use-cases/file_scanner#key-concepts)\n\nBefore we get started on our implementation, start by familiarizing yourself with [how scanning files works](about:/docs/scanning-files#prerequisites) with Nightfall, so you're acquainted with the flow we are implementing.\n\nIn a nutshell, file scanning is done asynchronously by Nightfall; after you upload a file to Nightfall and trigger the scan, we perform the scan in the background. When the scan completes, Nightfall delivers the results to you by making a request to your webhook server. This asynchronous behavior allows Nightfall to scan files of varying sizes and complexities without requiring you to hold open a long synchronous request, or continuously poll for updates. The impact of this pattern is that you need a webhook endpoint that can receive inbound notifications from Nightfall when scans are completed - that's what we are building in this tutorial.\n\n## Getting Started[](https://help.nightfall.ai/developer-api/nightfall-use-cases/file_scanner#getting-started)\n\nYou can fork the sample repo and view the complete code [here](https://github.com/nightfallai/file-scanner-tutorial), or follow along below. If you're starting from scratch, create a new GitHub repository.\n\n## Setting Up Dependencies[](https://help.nightfall.ai/developer-api/nightfall-use-cases/file_scanner#setting-up-dependencies)\n\nFirst, let's start by installing our dependencies. We'll be using Nightfall for data classification, the [Flask](https://flask.palletsprojects.com/en/2.0.x/) web framework in Python, and [Gunicorn](https://gunicorn.org/) as our web server. Create `requirements.txt` and add the following to the file:\n\nThen run `pip install -r requirements.txt` to do the installation.\n\n## Configuring Detection with Nightfall[](https://help.nightfall.ai/developer-api/nightfall-use-cases/file_scanner#configuring-detection-with-nightfall)\n\nNext, we'll need our Nightfall API Key and Webhook Signing Secret; the former authenticates us to the Nightfall API, while the latter authenticates that incoming webhooks are originating from Nightfall. You can retrieve your API Key and Webhook Signing Secret from the Nightfall [Dashboard](https://app.nightfall.ai/). Complete the Nightfall Quickstart for a more detailed walk-through. [Sign up](https://app.nightfall.ai/sign-up) for a free Nightfall account if you don't have one.\n\nThese values are unique to your account and should be kept safe. This means that we will store them as environment variables and should not store them directly in code or commit them into version control. If these values are ever leaked, be sure to visit the Nightfall Dashboard to re-generate new values for these secrets.\n\n## Setting Up Our Server[](https://help.nightfall.ai/developer-api/nightfall-use-cases/file_scanner#setting-up-our-server)\n\nLet's start writing our Flask server. Create a file called `app.py`. We'll start by importing our dependencies and initializing the Flask and Nightfall clients:\n\nNext, we'll add our first route, which will display \"Hello World\" when the client navigates to `/ping` simply as a way to validate things are working:\n\nRun `gunicorn app:app` on the command line to fire up your server, and navigate to your local server in your web browser. You'll see where the web browser is hosted in the Gunicorn logs, typically it will be `127.0.0.1:8000` aka `localhost:8000`.\n\nTo expose our local webhook server via a public tunnel that Nightfall can send requests to, we'll use ngrok. Download and install ngrok via their quickstart documentation [here](https://ngrok.com/docs/guides/quickstart). We'll create an ngrok tunnel as follows:\n\nAfter running this command, `ngrok` will create a tunnel on the public internet that redirects traffic from their site to your local machine. Copy the HTTPS tunnel endpoint that ngrok has created: we can use this as the webhook URL when we trigger a file scan.\n\nLet's set this HTTPS endpoint as a local environment variable so we can reference it later:\n\nTip: With a Pro ngrok account, you can create a subdomain so that your tunnel URL is consistent, instead of randomly generated each time you start the tunnel.\n\n## Handling an Inbound Webhook[](https://help.nightfall.ai/developer-api/nightfall-use-cases/file_scanner#handling-an-inbound-webhook)\n\nBefore you send a file scan request to Nightfall, let's add logic for our incoming webhook endpoint, so that when Nightfall finishes scanning a file, it can successfully send the sensitive findings to us.\n\nFirst, what does it mean to have findings? If a file has findings, this means that Nightfall identified sensitive data in the file that matched the detection rules you configured. For example, if you told Nightfall to look for credit card numbers, any substring from the request payload that matched our credit card detector would constitute sensitive findings.\n\nWe'll host our incoming webhook at `/ingest` with a POST method.\n\nNightfall will POST to the webhook endpoint, and in the inbound payload, Nightfall will indicate if there are sensitive findings in the file, and provide a link where we can access the sensitive findings as JSON.\n\nRestart your server so the changes propagate. We'll take a look at the console output of our webhook endpoint and explain what it means in the next section.\n\n## Scan a File[](https://help.nightfall.ai/developer-api/nightfall-use-cases/file_scanner#scan-a-file)\n\nNow, we want to trigger a file scan request, so that Nightfall will scan the file and send a POST request to our `/ingest` webhook endpoint when the scan is complete. We'll write a simple script that sends a file to Nightfall to scan it for [credit card numbers](about:/docs/detector-glossary#finance). Create a new file called `scan.py`.\n\nFirst, we'll establish our dependencies, initialize the Nightfall client, and specify the filepath to the file we wish to scan as well as the webhook endpoint we created above. The filepath is a relative path to any file, in this case we are scanning the `sample-pci-xs.csv` file which is in the same directory as `scan.py`. This is a sample CSV file with 10 credit card numbers in it - you can download it in the tutorial's GitHub [repo](https://github.com/nightfallai/file-scanner-tutorial).\n\nNext, we will initiate the scan request to Nightfall, by specifying our filepath, webhook URL where the scan results should be posted, and our Detection Rule that specifies what sensitive data we are looking for.\n\nIn this simple example, we have specified an inline Detection Rule that detects Likely Credit Card Numbers. This Detection Rule is a simple starting point that just scratches the surface of the types of detection you can build with Nightfall. Learn more about building inline detection rules here or how to configure them in the Nightfall [Dashboard](https://app.nightfall.ai/developer-platform).\n\nThe `scan_id` is useful for identifying your scan results later.\n\n## View Sensitive Findings[](https://help.nightfall.ai/developer-api/nightfall-use-cases/file_scanner#view-sensitive-findings)\n\nLet's run `scan.py` to trigger our file scan job.\n\nOnce Nightfall has finished scanning the file, we'll see our Flask server receive the request at our webhook endpoint (`/ingest`). In our code above, we parse the webhook payload, and print the following when there are sensitive findings:\n\nIn our output, we are printing two URLs.\n\nThe first URL is provided to us by Nightfall. It is the temporary signed S3 URL that we can access to fetch the sensitive findings that Nightfall detected.\n\nThe second URL won't work yet, we'll implement it next. This URL a we constructed in our `ingest()` method above - the URL calls `/view` and passes the Findings URL above as a URL-escaped query parameter.\n\nLet's add a method to our Flask server that opens this URL and displays the findings in a formatted table so that the results are easier to view than downloading them as JSON.\n\nWe'll do this by adding a `view` method that responds to GET requests to the `/view` route. The `/view` route will read the URL to the S3 Findings URL via a query parameter. It will then open the findings URL, parse it as JSON, pass the results to an HTML template, and display the results in a simple HTML table using [Jinja](https://jinja.palletsprojects.com/en/3.0.x/). Jinja is a simple templating engine in Python.\n\nAdd the following to our Flask server in `app.py`:\n\n## Create the Table View[](https://help.nightfall.ai/developer-api/nightfall-use-cases/file_scanner#create-the-table-view)\n\nTo display the findings in an HTML table, we'll create a new Flask template. Create a folder in your project directory called `templates` and add a new file within it called `view.html`.\n\nOur template uses Jinja to iterate through our findings, and create a table row for each sensitive finding.\n\nNow, if we restart our Flask server, trigger a file scan request, and navigate to the \"View\" URL printed in the server logs, we should see a formatted table with our results! In fact, we can input any Nightfall-provided signed S3 URL (after URL-escaping it) in the `findings_url` parameter of the `/view` route to view it.\n\n## Deploy on Render[](https://help.nightfall.ai/developer-api/nightfall-use-cases/file_scanner#deploy-on-render)\n\nAs a longtime Heroku user, I was initially inclined to write this tutorial with instructions to deploy our app on Heroku. However, new PaaS vendors have been emerging and I was curious to try them out and see how they compare to Heroku. One such vendor is Render, which is where we'll deploy our app.\n\nDeploying our service on Render is straightforward. If you're familiar with Heroku, the process is quite similar. Once you've signed up or logged into Render (free), we'll do the following:\n\n1. Create a new `Web Service` on Render, and permit Render to access your new repo.\n\n2. Use the following values during creation:\n\n- Environment: Python\n\n- Build Command: `pip install -r requirements.txt`\n\n- Start Command: `gunicorn app:app`\n\nLet's also set our environment variables during creation. These are the same values we set locally.\n\n## Scan a file (in production)[](https://help.nightfall.ai/developer-api/nightfall-use-cases/file_scanner#scan-a-file-in-production)\n\nOnce Render has finished deploying, you'll get the base URL of your application. Set this as your `NIGHTFALL_SERVER_URL` locally and re-run `scan.py` - this time, the file scan request is served by your production Flask server running on Render!\n\nTo confirm this, navigate to the `Logs` tab in your Render app console, you'll see the webhook's output of your file scan results:\n\nNavigate to the `View` link above in your browser to verify that you can see the results formatted in a table on your production site.\n\nCongrats, you've successfully created a file scanning server and deployed it in production! You're now ready to build more advanced business logic around your file scanner. Here are some ideas on how to extend this tutorial:\n\n- Use WebSockets to send a notification back from the webhook to the client that initiated the file scan request\n\n- Build a more advanced detection rule using pre-built or custom detectors\n\n- Add a user interface to add more interactive capabilities, for example allowing users to upload files or read files from URLs\n","2026-08-04T17:13:00.807Z","2026-08-04T17:13:00.849Z","3799e5f7-3c40-423c-b088-6dda535d95c4",[],[],[],"Data Encryption: How to Perform the One-Time Local Approval of the Extension | Nightfall AI Knowledge Base","data-encryption-how-to-perform-the-one-time-local-approval-of-the-extension-nightfall-ai-knowledge-b","https://kb.nightfall.ai/articles/7699220704-data-encryption-how-to-perform-the-one-time-local-approval-of-the-extension","# Data Encryption: How to Perform the One-Time Local Approval of the Extension\n\nLast updated 1 month ago\n\n## Purpose\n\nTo locally approve the Google connection and extension on a machine for the first- and only-time\n\n## Environment\n\n- Google Chrome: All versions\n\n- Google Workspace: Gmail\n\n- Nightfall Extension: All versions\n\n## Resolution\n\n### Enable the Extension\n\n1.

The Data data detection and response (aka sensitive data protection) Events page displays all the details about the data sensitive events recorded in Nightfall from all the integrations.\n\nBefore we proceed further, let's understand what exactly is a Finding and a Event.\n\n**Finding:** A Finding refers to a single instance of a data leak incident detected during scanning.\n\n**Event:** An Event is an incident of data leaks, and a collection of findings that were detected while scanning an entire document or data in your database.\n\n## Events vs Findings[](https://help.nightfall.ai/dashboard/sdp_events#events-vs-findings)\n\nWhen Nightfall scans data, a single Event can have multiple findings. For instance, consider that you upload a document to Google Drive. This document has 10 instances of secret information (10 API keys or 10 credit card numbers). These 10 instances are known as Findings. Since Nightfall scans the entire Google document at once, these 10 Findings are recorded as a single Event.\n\n## Event List View[](https://help.nightfall.ai/dashboard/sdp_events#event-list-view)\n\nThe sensitive data Event list view page consists of a table that displays the details of each Event. The contents consist of columns which are described as follows.\n\n## Event Likelihood[](https://help.nightfall.ai/dashboard/sdp_events#event-likelihood)\n\nThe **Finding** column displays the name of the detector whose condition was violated thus resulting in the generation of the Event. The Finding column displays a list of Events that originated from scanning a single file, a web page, or any other publicly available entity.\n\nEach Event's name is the same as the Detector's name whose condition was violated. You can also view the Likelihood or confidence level (Possible, Likely, Very Likely) of an Event being an actual case of data leak and also the number of instances for each Likelihood. The **Possible** Likelihood Findings are displayed in blue color with a fully dotted blue circle. The **Likely** Finding is displayed in yellow color with a half-dotted and half-shaded yellow circle. The **Very Likely** Finding is displayed in red color with a red circle.\n\nFor instance, in the following image, a detector called Person name violated 28 times. Of these 28 instances of violations, 1 is **Possible Event** (in blue), 5 are **Likely Events** (in yellow), and 22 are **Very Likely** Events (in red).\n\n## Event Detail View[](https://help.nightfall.ai/dashboard/sdp_events#event-detail-view)\n\nThe Event detail view consists of various sections. These sections are as follows.\n\n### Event Detail View First Section[](https://help.nightfall.ai/dashboard/sdp_events#event-detail-view-first-section)\n\nEach field is highlighted and a number is associated with the highlighted field. Using the number, you can refer to the section that follows the image to learn more about the field associated with that number.\n\n1 - Name of the Event\n\n2 - Current Status of the Event. For more information on Event status, refer to the [Event Status](https://help.nightfall.ai/dashboard/sdp_events/status) document.\n\n3 - The nature (Credit card in the above image) and number of Findings (1 in the above image) in the Event.\n\n4 - The name of the document in which the sensitive data was found (TEst Automation Action.Docx in the above image).

However, in this case only one document contained sensitive data.\n\n5 - The actual sensitive data found in the document (4242-4242-4242-4242 in the above image). The sensitive data is highlighted in yellow which indicates the Likelihood is **Likely**. Findings whose Likelihood are **Very Likely** are highlighted in red and Findings with Likelihood of Possible are highlighted in blue. For more information on Likelihood, see [Working on Events](https://help.nightfall.ai/dashboard/sdp_events#working-on-events)document.\n\n6 - Number of Findings in the selected document.

These sections are highlighted in the following image.\n\n- **Event logs** - The event logs section contains a log of activities performed on the Event. By default, the first log activity recorded is the Event creation activity. The next set of activities generally provide information about Event notifications sent via various notification channels and actions taken on the Event.\n\n- **Comments** - The comments section allows you to enter comments on the Event. The maximum character limit for the comment is 300.\n\n## Working on Events[](https://help.nightfall.ai/dashboard/sdp_events#working-on-events)\n\nIf a single scanned entity (file or web page) violates multiple detector rules, Nightfall displays the list of all the detectors that the finding has violated. Such Events are displayed with a detector name, followed by a **+1** (if two detectors are violated), **+2** (if three detectors are violated), and so on, on the Event List view.\n\nIn the following image, you can see that the Finding has violated a detector called Credit card number and also another detector. Hence a **+1** is displayed.\n\nIn the above case, if the Finding violated three detectors, **+2** is displayed. If the Finding violated 4 detectors, **+3** is displayed.\n\nTo view the list of detectors violated and the Likelihood (Possible, Likely, and Very Likely) of each finding discovered in the file, click the Event. This opens the Event detail view. You can view the names of the violated detectors and the number of findings on the Event detail view.\n\nIn the following image, a single file **Automated upload 1728418320** has violated three detectors. The detectors are **Person name, Tom Cruise with Exclusions** and **Phone number**. The **Person name** detector has been violated 22 times and hence there are 22 findings for this detector. You can view each of these 22 instances of findings by clicking the **22 Person name** tab and scrolling down. The findings that are highlighted in Blue are **Possible** findings, findings highlighted in Red are **Most Likely** findings, and the findings highlighted in yellow are **Likely** findings. There is a **Showing** field which displays the number of Findings and the likelihood of each finding. In the following image, the **Showing** field displays 22 in red. It implies that all 22 findings have the **Most Likely** likelihood.\n\nThe **Tom Cruise with Exclusions** detector has 3 findings. You can view the Likelihood of each of the 3 findings. You can view the findings that violated this detection rule by clicking the **3 tom cruise with exclusions** tab.\n\nSimilarly, you can click the 3 Phone Number to view the details of the findings that violated the **Phone number** detector.\n\n## Annotating Findings[](https://help.nightfall.ai/dashboard/sdp_events#annotating-findings)\n\nAs learned above, a Event can have multiple findings. If you find that any of the findings discovered by Nightfall is not an actual case of data leak, you can use the **Annotate** feature to annotate the specific finding as a false positive. Furthermore, you can also annotate those findings, which surely are a case of data leak, as true positives. Each finding has the annotate option.\n\nTo annotate a finding:\n\n1. Hover the mouse on the finding that you wish to annotate.\n\n2. Click the annotation icon.\n\n3. Select one of the following annotation options.\n\n- **Not a Credit card number:** Select this option if you feel that the Credit card number discovered by Nightfall is not a credit card number but some other number. This marks the finding as a False positive.\n\n- **Not a violation**: Select this option if you feel the finding discovered by Nightfall is not a violation (an imaginary credit card number shared publicly as an example). This marks the finding as a False positive.\n\n- **True Positive:** Select this option if you feel that the finding discovered by Nightfall is an actual case of data leak. This marks the finding as True positive.\n\n1. (Optional) Enter comments for annotation.\n\n2. (Optional) Turn the **Apply to all identical findings** toggle switch to annotate all the similar findings. Click [Bulk Annotate](https://help.nightfall.ai/dashboard/sdp_events#bulk-annotate) to learn more about this feature.\n\n3. Click **Apply**.\n\nIn step 3, of the above task, you see three options for annotation. The name of the first option depends on the nature of the Finding. For instance, if the sensitive data found is a suspected API key, the option name changes to **Not an API key.** If it is a Personally Identifiable Information (PII), the option name changes to **Not a Personally Identifiable Information**, and so on.\n\nWhen you annotate a finding as **Not a credit card**, **Not an Address**, and so on, or annotate a finding as **Not a** **Violation,** the Finding is displayed as **False Positive** on the Finding column. If you annotate a Finding as **True Positive**, it is displayed as **True Positive** on the Finding column.\n\nIn the following image, a Violation has 25 **Very Likely** Findings and 28 **Possible** Findings. We annotate a **Very Likely** Finding as **True Positive** and a **Possible** Finding as **Not a Violation**. You can see that the values are reflected accordingly. Findings annotated as **True positive** are displayed in green color and Findings annotated as **False Positive** are displayed in grey color.\n\nThe Finding column also reflects the latest data on each finding. You can view that **Very Likely** Findings has reduced to 24. This is because one of them is annotated as **True Positive**. Similarly, **Likely** findings have reduced to 27. This is because one of them is annotated as **False Positive**.\n\nIf you accidentally annotate a Finding or annotate a Finding incorrectly, Nightfall provides remediation measures too. For accidentally annotated Findings, you can revert the annotation to return to the original Likelihood (Possible, Likely, Very Likely). For incorrectly annotated findings, you can modify the annotation.\n\n### Bulk Annotate[](https://help.nightfall.ai/dashboard/sdp_events#bulk-annotate)\n\nWhen the Apply to all identical findings toggle switch is enabled, the following events occur.\n\n- annotation is applied to all exact matches of the finding in all the existing Events.\n\n- annotation is applied to all exact matches of the findings in new Events.\n\nFurthermore, the Nightfall AI Smart Auto-Ignore feature performs the following tasks.\n\n- Events whose 100% of findings are annotated as false positives are automatically ignored.\n\n- When auto-ignored, an entry is added to the Event activity log for visibility\n\n- Auto-ignored Events are updated to \"Ignored\" status and moved to the \"Resolved\" tab for visibility, analysts' review, or audit.\n\n**Undo Auto-Ignore**\n\n- Undo is an action available on any Event that has been automatically ignored by Nightfall AI.\n\n- Taking the undo action reverts the status of the selected Event back to the pre-ignore state.\n\n**Undo Annotation and Disable Automatic Annotation**\n\n- The annotation for a specific token/finding can be undone by reverting the annotation (no change from current behavior).\n\n- When edited the \"apply to all...\" flag can be disabled. When disabled, future instances of the exact finding will not be automatically annotated.\n\n### View Event Details[](https://help.nightfall.ai/dashboard/sdp_events#view-event-details)\n\nYou can also find more details about the Event from the Event detail view. By default, only a few details are displayed on the Event detail view. You must click the **Expand details** button to view all the details of the Event. You can also view the chronological order of events (annotations applied, reverted, Event resolved, and so on) on the Event. The events start from the date on which the Event was created. You can also add comments on the Event.\n\n## Apply Actions on Events[](https://help.nightfall.ai/dashboard/sdp_events#apply-actions-on-events)\n\nYou can also apply various actions on the Events. The actions menu displays a list of actions that you can perform on an Event.\n\nTo learn more about Event actions, you can view the [Applying Actions on Events](https://help.nightfall.ai/dashboard/sdp_events/event_actions) document.\n\n## Bulk Actions[](https://help.nightfall.ai/dashboard/sdp_events#bulk-actions)\n\nWhen you wish to implement an action on multiple Events simultaneously, you can use the bulk action feature. To learn more about how to use this feature, refer to the [Applying Bulk Actions on Events](https://help.nightfall.ai/dashboard/sdp_events/bulk_actions) document.\n\n## Filtering Data[](https://help.nightfall.ai/dashboard/sdp_events#filtering-data)\n\nNightfall provides you with various filters to view Events specific to an integration, User, or Status. This ensures that you view data that is specific to your requirements. The various filters are described as follows.\n\n### Historic Data Filter[](https://help.nightfall.ai/dashboard/sdp_events#historic-data-filter)\n\nThis filter allows you to view historical data. You can choose to view data for the last 7, 30, 90, 120, or 180 days. You can also select a custom date range by entering the date in the MM/DD/YY format. When you apply a specific period, all the data on the Event management page is fetched from the selected period till the current date. For instance, assume that the current date is 1 December 2023. If you select the time filter as Last 7 days, the data is displayed from 25 Nov 2023 to 1 December 2023. Similarly, if you select the time filter as last 30 days, the data is displayed from November 2, 2023, to December 1, 2023. By default, this filter displays the data for the **Last 7 days**. You can click the Last 7 Days button to edit the date.\n\n### Miscellaneous Filters[](https://help.nightfall.ai/dashboard/sdp_events#miscellaneous-filters)\n\nThe miscellaneous filters allow you to apply filters on various Nightfall entities. The entities are described as follows.\n\n#### Detector[](https://help.nightfall.ai/dashboard/sdp_events#detector)\n\nThis filter facilitates you to view Event data specific to a Detecter.\n\n#### Integration[](https://help.nightfall.ai/dashboard/sdp_events#integration)\n\nThis filter facilitates you to view Event data specific to an Integration\n\n#### Likelihood[](https://help.nightfall.ai/dashboard/sdp_events#likelihood)\n\nThis filter facilitates you to view Event data specific to the Likelihood of sensitive data being detected.\n\n#### Status[](https://help.nightfall.ai/dashboard/sdp_events#status)\n\nThis filter facilitates you to view data specific to the status of Event\n\n#### User[](https://help.nightfall.ai/dashboard/sdp_events#user)\n\nThis filter facilitates you to view data specific to users who triggered Events.\n\nTo apply a filter:\n\n1. Click the **Filter** button.\n\n2. In the **When** drop-down menu select a filter.\n\n**Note**: The **Select an Option** drop-down menu is activated once you select a filter. The options in the drop-down menu vary for each filter selected.\n\n1. Select a filter value from the **Select an Option** drop-down menu. For some filters (like integration filter), you can select multiple values.\n\n2. (Optional) Click Add Filter to add multiple filters.\n\n3. (Optional) Repeat steps 2-3 to add multiple filters.\n\n4. Click **Apply**.\n\n- You can add multiple filters. Nightfall allows you to add a maximum of five filters.\n\n- When you add multiple filters, logical AND operation is applied between the filters. As a result, only the data that matches all the applied filters is displayed.\n\n- To remove the miscellaneous filters, click the **Reset** button.\n\n## Automated Event Duplication Management[](https://help.nightfall.ai/dashboard/sdp_events#automated-event-duplication-management)\n\nIf an Event is reported multiple times, Nightfall updates the Event to the new instance, instead of creating new Events. However, it maintains a trail of the Events to ensure no reporting is lost.\n\nFiltering duplicates reduces alerts. It also saves you the time spent on analyzing each finding.\n\nNightfall filters duplicate findings in multiple ways. New Events are not created when:\n\n- You remove a previously reported finding. The existing Event is updated. You can view the update in the Event metadata.\n\n- a duplicate of a finding previously reported is added. The existing Event is updated.\n\n**Note:** Filtering duplicate Events is currently available for Jira and Confluence.\n\nAn Event is auto-resolved:\n\n- When you remove all reported findings.\n\n- When you delete a resource (ex. ticket, comment, or page).\n\n### Examples[](https://help.nightfall.ai/dashboard/sdp_events#examples)\n\nConsider the case of JIRA integration. If Nightfall detects a data Event in either your JIRA ticket description or JIRA ticket comments an Event is created. This Event has a single finding which was detected in the JIRA ticket. You can view the history of this Event as highlighted in the following image.\n\nNow, consider that you add more sensitive data in the ticket. When Nightfall scans the ticket again the following events occur\n\n- A new Event is created with a single finding. This finding refers to the new sensitive data detected during the second scan.\n\n- The previous Event record is updated. It now has two findings (even more than two if multiple findings are detected on the same ticket).\n\nYou can now find the duplicate ticket information in the ticket history section.\n\n## Searching Events[](https://help.nightfall.ai/dashboard/sdp_events#searching-events)\n\nThe search bar in Events allows you to search Events in two ways as described in the following sections.\n\n### Keyword Based Search[](https://help.nightfall.ai/dashboard/sdp_events#keyword-based-search)\n\nYou can search for Events using a keyword. The search returns all Events that contain all the keywords submitted.\n\n- For instance, searching for a Credit Card returns all Events that contain Credit AND Card in any of the indexed Event properties.\n\n- You can search for an exact phrase. Use double quotes around the phrase (ex.\"Credit Card Number\").\n\n- Use the AND to search for Credit Card Number Events by John Doe (ex. \"Credit Card Number\" AND \"John Doe\")\n\n- Use the Not operator to exclude Events from your search query (ex.\"Credit Card Number\" AND \"John Doe\" NOT Confluence)\n\n### Operator Based Search[](https://help.nightfall.ai/dashboard/sdp_events#operator-based-search)\n\nNightfall provides you with search operators to search for the exact Event required. A search operator is an entity that you can use as a filtering factor. For instance, **Detector\\_name** is an operator that you can use to view Events specific to a detector. Similarly, Confidence is an operator that you can use to filter Events based on confidence levels (Very Likely, Likely, Possible).\n\nYou can use an operator as shown in the following image.\n\nYou can see that when you search for Events with **Likely** Confidence, the search returns all the Events in which at least one instance of **Likely** Finding. Similarly, when you search for **Possible** Confidence, the search returns all the Events that have at least one instance of **Possible** finding.\n\nNightfall also displays the last five search terms for each user. These values are stored in the user's browser cache.\n\nNightfall provides two types of search operators.\n\n- **General Search Operators**: These operators are based on Nightfall entities. These can be confidence level, Nightfall actions, Event status, and so on. To view the complete list of general search operators, see [General Operators](https://help.nightfall.ai/dashboard/sdp_events/filter_operators#general-operators).\n\n- **Integration Search Operators**: These are the search operators based on specific integrations. These operators vary for each integration. To view the complete list of integration-based search operators, see [Integration Operators](https://help.nightfall.ai/dashboard/sdp_events/filter_operators#integration-operators).\n\nYou can use multiple operators to refine your search. When you use multiple operators, Nightfall applies the AND logic between the operators. So, if you wish to view all the active Events in the Zendesk integration, you can accomplish it as shown in the following image.\n\nYou can also use a single operator to filter multiple values. For instance, to view all the Events of Zendesk and Salesforce integrations, you can use the search as shown below.\n\n**Note**\n\n`**:**` is used as an operator delimiter for search as so `**:**` cannot be used as a search string. If you wish to search a text with `**:**` colon in it, replace it with `?` or `*` and submit the query, else the prefix to colon would be considered an operator.\n\n### Special Characters[](https://help.nightfall.ai/dashboard/sdp_events#special-characters)\n\nWhile `**:**` is a special character that is an operator seperator for search actions, there are other special characters that cannot be used directly in the search bar. The complete list of special characters that cannot be searched directly, are as follows.\n\nSo, if your policy name contains reserved characters like && {}, you cannot use these characters directly in the search bar. You must make some changes to your search query before using them. To search any of the above special characters, you must perform any one of the following tasks:\n\n- Use an escape character \\ before the special character (_this will work with all special characters but not with_ `**:**` )\n\n- Replace the special character with the wildcard (\\*).\n\n- Replace the special character with a question mark (?).\n\nSome of the examples are as follows.\n\n- To search the policy name `Google Drive! Critical_Document`_,_ you must use one of the following search terms.\n\n- To search the policy name `H&&M,` you must use one of the following search terms.\n\n- To search the policy name `Google !`, you must use one of the following search terms.\n\nNightfall allows you to share and download the Event data. The Share option creates a link to the current view with all the filters applied. When you click this link,the Events page opens with all the filters applied.\n\nThe Export option, creates a CSV file with all the event data. The CSV file is mailed to the logged in user's Email ID. The CSV file contains all the filters which were applied before initiating the download process. Click **Export to CSV** to start the export process.\n\nOnce you click **Export to CSV**, a pop up window is displayed. You can select one of the following options and click **Send Download Link.**\n\n- **Redacted Findings**: In this report, all the findings of an Event are grouped in a single row. The report is available only for 24 hours, once delivered. You cannot access the report after 24 hours.\n\n- **Un-redacted Findings**: Users with [System administrator](https://help.nightfall.ai/sensitive-data-protection/nightfall_settings/role_based_access_control#roles-and-permissions) role can view un-redacted findings by selecting this option. Only those findings that are not older than 30 days can be viewed in un-redacted format. Findings older than 30 days are redacted. In this report, each finding is available in a separate row. The report is available only for 24 hours, once delivered. You cannot access the report after 24 hours.\n\nYou receive an Email from Nightfall with the subject line **Nightfall - Report .** You must click the **Download Report** button in the email. The link to the report expires 7 days after you receive the email.\n\nThe CSV table contains the same columns as in case of the Event list view. The file looks as follows.\n","2026-08-04T17:12:53.731Z","2026-08-04T18:29:07.459Z","ff1f0067-9755-4815-8e6d-50026a5e45a7",[],[],[],"Customer Referral Program | Nightfall Documentation","customer-referral-program-nightfall-documentation","https://help.nightfall.ai/nightfall_settings/customer-referral-program","Share your love for Nightfall and earn rewards.

If you are a Nightfall Firewall for AI customer, refer to [this document](https://help.nightfall.ai/nightfall-developer-platform/getting-started-with-developer-platform/creating-policies).\n\n## Background Knowledge[](https://help.nightfall.ai/detection_platform/policies#background-knowledge)\n\nAn Integration in Nightfall refers to a SaaS application in which your organization's data resides. This SaaS application can be Google Drive, JIRA, Notion, GitHub, and so on. The sensitive data residing in these applications is highly prone to data leakage, accidentally by your employees.\n\nYou can connect your SaaS applications to Nightfall by adding them as integrations. Once a SaaS application is added as an integration, Nightfall continuously scans it to check if there is any sensitive data leakage.\n\n## Understanding Policies[](https://help.nightfall.ai/detection_platform/policies#understanding-policies)\n\nA Policy in Nightfall allows you to define a specific part of your integration or the entire integration to be monitored for sensitive data leakage, by Nightfall. Apart from monitoring your environment, Policies in Nightfall also allow you to configure alerts and automatic actions if Nightfall discovers sensitive information in the integration being scanned.\n\nOnce you create a policy, if there is any instance of data leakage, Nightfall sends notifications to the audience configured by you in the policy. It also takes automated actions, configured by you in the policy. If you have disabled automated actions and no action is taken by you, Nightfall also sends reminders, as per the frequency set by you in the policy. All these actions are done automatically by Nightfall, as per the policy settings, configured by you.\n\nA Policy in Nightfall is always associated with integration. You can create multiple policies on a single integration. Before creating a policy for an integration, you must first ensure that the integration is added to Nightfall.\n\n## Policy Stages[](https://help.nightfall.ai/detection_platform/policies#policy-stages)\n\nA Nightfall Policy has multiple stages. You can configure various settings like adding specific sections of integration to be scanned, configuring alert notifications, end-user actions, and so on. The various stages of a policy are described in the following document.\n\n[Selecting Integration](https://help.nightfall.ai/detection_platform/policies/integration)\n\n[Scope of the Policy](https://help.nightfall.ai/detection_platform/policies/scope)\n\n[Detection Rules](https://help.nightfall.ai/detection_platform/policies/detection_rules)\n\n[Advanced Settings](https://help.nightfall.ai/detection_platform/policies/advanced_settings)\n\n[Name and Risk Score](https://help.nightfall.ai/detection_platform/policies/risk_score)\n","2026-08-04T17:12:51.965Z","2026-08-04T18:29:06.517Z","975b933e-32e5-49da-9745-b244de305ae2",[],[],[],"Creating Custom Detectors | Nightfall Documentation","creating-custom-detectors-nightfall-documentation","https://help.nightfall.ai/detection_platform/custom_detectors","Nightfall allows you to create custom detectors that match your organization's requirements. If none of the existing Nightfall detectors match your requirements, you can use this option to create a custom detector.\n\nNightfall provides you with five types of custom detectors.\n\n- **Dictionary**: This Detector allows you to upload a text file. The text file must have a specific token which is sensitive data for your organization. The Detector looks for this token in all the data and if a match is found, it flags it as sensitive data found.\n\n- **File Type**: This Detector allows you to select a [MIME](https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/multipurpose-internet-mail-extension-mime-protocol/) (Multipurpose Internet mail extension). (roughly speaking, every file on the Internet is recognized by its format which is called MIME). The Detector scans all your data to check if it has a file with the selected MIME type.\n\n- **File Fingerprint**: This Detector accepts a file as input. You can add all the content that you feel is sensitive to your organization. The detector uses this file as the base and scans your data to check if any matching content is present. If found, it flags it as sensitive data.\n\n- **Regular Expression**: This Detector allows you to define regular expressions matching the [RE2 syntax](https://github.com/google/re2/wiki/Syntax/). The Detector scans all your data to find any content that matches the regular expression. If found, it flags it as sensitive data.\n\n- _**NEW**_ **- Prompt-Based Entity Detector**: This Detector allows you to define sensitive entities using natural language. Instead of relying on fixed formats or patterns, the Detector uses semantic understanding to identify custom or proprietary sensitive entities based on your description.\n\n- _**NEW**_ **- Prompt-Based File Classifier**: This Detector allows you to classify entire documents based on their intent and meaning. You describe the type of document you want to detect, and the Detector evaluates the full content of the file to determine whether it matches.\n\n- **Extend a Nightfall Detector**: This Detector type allows you to customize an out-of-the-box Detector by defining Context Rules and Token rules.\n\n#### Prompt-Based Detectors[](https://help.nightfall.ai/detection_platform/custom_detectors#prompt-based-detectors)\n\nPrompt-based detectors use large language models (LLMs) to identify sensitive data based on meaning and context, rather than fixed patterns or schemas. These detectors are especially useful for identifying proprietary, evolving, or business-specific data that is difficult to capture using traditional detectors.\n\nPrompt-based detectors are best suited for:\n\n- Custom or organization-specific sensitive data\n\n- Documents where sensitivity is determined by intent, not keywords\n\n- Rapid iteration without writing regex or training custom models\n\nApart from the above custom Detectors, you can also use the **Request a new detector** option to request an entirely new custom Detector created by Nightfall. **Prompt-based detectors** provide a faster alternative for defining custom detection logic without engineering effort.\n\nTo view only custom detectors created by you, click the CUSTOM filter in the left pane.\n\nTo learn more about how to create each of the custom detectors, you can refer to the following documents.\n","2026-08-04T17:12:51.110Z","2026-08-04T18:29:06.085Z","91c4eb0b-6036-484a-a79e-ced9df6c18cb",[],[],[],"Create MX Record | Nightfall Documentation","create-mx-record-nightfall-documentation","https://help.nightfall.ai/microsoft-exchange/getting_started/installing-microsoft-exchange/create-mx-record","This process helps Nightfall identify your Exchange online account in Microsoft.

You cannot use detectors directly. Detectors become useful only when you add them to a Detection rule and then add the detection rule to a policy.\n\nYou can add multiple detectors to a single detection rule. Nightfall does not restrict you on the type of detector that can be added to a detection rule. You can add both, a custom detector and a Nightfall detector to the same detection rule.\n\nYou can create multiple detection rules to detect different types of sensitive data. For example, you can add the Password detector to a Detection rule and use it to detect password leaks. You can add the API key detector to another detection rule and use it for detecting API key leaks.\n\nOnce you add all the required detectors to the detection rule, Nightfall allows you to test the detection rule in the Nightfall Playground. You can use the Nightfall playground only for testing if the detection rule works as expected. Once you confirm that the detection rule works as expected, you must add the detection rule to policy to leverage your data security requirements. Conversely, you can also have a single detection rule in which you add both Password and API key detectors.\n\nYou can access the Detection rules page by clicking **Detection** from the left pane and then clicking **Detection Rules**. To create a new Detection rule, you must click the **+ New Detection Rule** button the top right corner.\n\nIf you wish to get guidelines from Nightfall on what detectors must be included in your detection rules, refer to the [Detection Rules](https://help.nightfall.ai/nightfall_policy_templates/detection_rules) document.\n\n## Adding Detectors to Detection Rule[](https://help.nightfall.ai/detection_platform/create_detection_rules#adding-detectors-to-detection-rule)\n\nYou can add a Detector to the Detection rule by executing the following steps.\n\n1. Click the **+ New Detection Rule** button the top right corner.\n\n2. Enter a name for the detection rule in the **Name** field.\n\n3. (Optional) Enter a description for the detection rule in the **Description** field.\n\n4. Click **+ Add Detectors** to add detectors to the detection rule.\n\n5. Select the check box for the detectors that you wish to add to the detection rule. You can use the filters to view only the Nightfall detectors or the custom detectors or the search bar to search detectors.\n\n6. Click **Add**.\n\nYou can see that the selected detectors are added to the detection rule. In the following image two detectors have been added to the Detection rule.\n\n## Detection Rule Settings[](https://help.nightfall.ai/detection_platform/create_detection_rules#detection-rule-settings)\n\nOnce you add the required detectors to the detection rules, you can se that there are three columns; **Scope**, **Minimum Confidence**, and **Minimum # of Findings**. These settings define the weightage of the detector in the detection rule. You must configure these settings for each detector.\n\nThese settings are explained in the following sub-sections.\n\n### Scope[](https://help.nightfall.ai/detection_platform/create_detection_rules#scope)\n\nThe Scope setting allows you to define which part of the data the detector must scan. You can configure this setting to scan either the name of the file, the contents of the file or both.\n\nIf you select the **Content** option, this detector only scans the content of the files and not the name of the file, and vice versa, if you select **File Name**. However, if you select **Both**, the detector scans the file name as well the contents of the file.\n\nFor example, if the API key detector has to scan a Google Drive file and if you select, **File Name**, then the detector only scans the name of the file to check if the name has any API key. Similarly, if you select **Content**, then the detector only scans the content of the file and not the name. If you select **Both**, then the detector scans both; the name and the contents of the file.\n\n**Important**\n\nIf you wish to scan content that is not part of any file, you must either select the **Content** or **Both** option.\n\nFor example, if you wish to scan direct messages or group messages from Slack or MS Teams, these messages are not part of any files. In such cases, if you select the **File Name** option, the detector does not detect any violation because it considers direct messages as Content not part of any file. Hence to scan such types of content you must select either **Content** or **Both** options.\n\n### Minimum Confidence[](https://help.nightfall.ai/detection_platform/create_detection_rules#minimum-confidence)\n\nThe minimum confidence setting defines the probability of a detector's findings being actual violations. Nightfall provides you with three Minimum Confidence settings; Possible, Likely, and Very Likely.\n\nThe **Possible** option indicates that there is a **40-60%** chance of the Detector's finding being an actual case of data leak, Similarly, the **Likely** option indicates that there is a **61-80%** chance of the Detector's finding being an actual case of data leak. The **Very Likely** option indicates that there is a **81-100%** chance of the Detector's finding being an actual case of data leak.\n\nYou can set the Minimum Confidence setting for each detector. When the detector detects any data leak, it is logged in the [Data Detection and Response Events](https://help.nightfall.ai/dashboard/sdp_events) page with the Minimum Confidence setting configured here.\n\n### Minimum Number of Findings[](https://help.nightfall.ai/detection_platform/create_detection_rules#minimum-number-of-findings)\n\nThis setting defines the minimum number of data leak cases that a detector must encounter for it to be considered as a Violation by the Detection rule. You must configure this setting for each detector. For example, if you set this setting to 10, the detection rule does not consider the first 9 occurences of data leak encountered by the detector. Detection engine starts considering the 10th and all subsequent cases of data leak to be actual case of violations.\n\n## Applying Logical Operators Between Detectors[](https://help.nightfall.ai/detection_platform/create_detection_rules#applying-logical-operators-between-detectors)\n\nIf a detection rule has a single detector and if that detector detects a data leak, the detection rule is triggered and it is logged as a Finding.\n\nHowever, when you have multiple detectors in detection rule, you can choose to trigger the detection rule when any of the detector detects a data leak or when all the detectors detect a data leak.\n\nAs you can see in the above image, you can choose the flag a Finding of the detection rule either when any single detector detects a data leak or when all the detectors of the detection rule detect a data leak.\n\n## Understanding When the Detection Rule Triggers[](https://help.nightfall.ai/detection_platform/create_detection_rules#understanding-when-the-detection-rule-triggers)\n\nThe above image has two detectors. The following statements hold good.\n\n- The Scope of both the detectors is set to scan the file content and file name.\n\n- When any of these detectors detect a data leak, it is logged as a Finding in the Violations page and tagged as Very Likely.\n\n- The minimum number of findings for each detector is 1. So even if there is a single case of a data leak, a detector rule considers it as a finding.\n\n- The detection rule is triggered even if a single detector detects a data leak.\n\n## Testing Detection Rules in Nightfall Playground[](https://help.nightfall.ai/detection_platform/create_detection_rules#testing-detection-rules-in-nightfall-playground)\n\nOnce you create the detection rule, it is highly recommended that you test the rule to ensure that it returns the expected results, when added to policies. Nightfall provides you with a Playground to test the detection rules.\n\n### Prerequisites to use Nightfall Playground[](https://help.nightfall.ai/detection_platform/create_detection_rules#prerequisites-to-use-nightfall-playground)\n\n- You must have an API key to use the Nightfall Playground. You can [refer to this document](https://help.nightfall.ai/nightfall-developer-platform/getting-started-with-developer-platform/creating-api-key) to learn about how to create an API key.\n\n- You must have some sample data to test the Detection rule. This [Nightfall document](https://help.nightfall.ai/nightfall-ai/nightfall-detection-and-policy-templates/nightfall-sample-data-sets) has various types of sample data sets that you can use.\n\n### Capturing Detection Rule UUID[](https://help.nightfall.ai/detection_platform/create_detection_rules#capturing-detection-rule-uuid)\n\nEach Detection rule in Nightfall has a UUID. This is a unique ID assigned to each detector when it is created. You cannot edit the UUID of any detector. You must capture this UUID to use it in Playground to test the detection rule.\n\nTo capture Detection rule UUID:\n\n1. Navigate to Detection rules.\n\n2. Click the detection rule whose UUID has to be captured.\n\n3. Click the UUID to copy it.\n\n### Using the Nightfall Playground[](https://help.nightfall.ai/detection_platform/create_detection_rules#using-the-nightfall-playground)\n\nTo use the Nightfall playground:\n\n2. Use either the **I'm Scanning Text** or **I'm Scanning Files** tab based on whether you wish to scan text or file.\n\n3. Replace the existing sample data with your sample data in **Step 1: Payload.**\n\n4. Skip **Step 2: Pick Detection rule**.\n\n5. Expand **Advanced Detection Settings (Optional)**\n\n6. Paste the Nightfall API key in the **Nightfall API Key** field.\n\n7. Paste the Detection rule UUID in the **Detection Rules** field.\n\n8. Click **Start Scan.**\n\nIf sensitive data is found in the sample data, the Findings section looks as shown in the following image.\n\n1. Paste the file URL or upload the file in **Step 1: Files to scan**.\n\n2. Enter the Email to which the scan results must be sent in the **Step 2: Email** field.\n\n3. Skip **Step 2: Pick Detection rule**.\n\n4. Expand **Advanced Detection Settings (Optional)**\n\n5. Paste the Nightfall API key in the **Nightfall API Key** field.\n\n6. Paste the Detection rule UUID in the **Detection Rules** field.\n\n7.

While notifying the end-user, Nightfall also sends a text message. You can draft the text message to be sent to the end-user. This message applies to all the policies. Click **Save changes** once done.\n","2026-08-04T17:15:32.340Z","2026-08-04T17:15:32.397Z","90b9b940-f4fc-4796-a476-6064beef40f5",[],[],[],"Configuring Advanced Settings in Nightfall for JIRA | Nightfall Documentation","configuring-advanced-settings-in-nightfall-for-jira-nightfall-documentation","https://help.nightfall.ai/jira/policies/advanced_settings","# Configuring Advanced Settings in Nightfall for JIRA\n\nThis stage allows you to select notification channels if a policy violation occurs. The advanced settings page consists of the following configurations.\n\n[Admin Alerting](https://help.nightfall.ai/jira/policies/advanced_settings#admin-alerting): This section describes the process of setting alerts for Nightfall administrators when a policy violation is detected.\n\n[Automated Actions](https://help.nightfall.ai/jira/policies/advanced_settings#automated-actions): This section describes the automated actions that can be taken when a policy violation is detected.\n\n[End User Notification](https://help.nightfall.ai/jira/policies/advanced_settings#end-user-notification): This section describes the process of setting alerts for end users (a person whose action caused a violation) when a policy violation is detected.\n\n## Admin Alerting[](https://help.nightfall.ai/jira/policies/advanced_settings#admin-alerting)\n\nThe alert configurations configured in this section describe the process of creating alerts at the policy level. Policy-level alerts apply only to the policy on which they are configured. To configure an alert on all the Slack policies, you must configure alerts at the integration level. To learn more about how to configure integration-level policies for Slack integration, read [this document](https://help.nightfall.ai/nightfall-ai/nightfall-for-jira/installing-nightfall-for-jira/configuring-integration-alerts).\n\nThe steps to configure alert channels for policy-level integration are the same as in the case of integration-level alerts. You can refer to [this document](https://help.nightfall.ai/nightfall-ai/nightfall-for-jira/installing-nightfall-for-jira/configuring-integration-alerts#configure-alerts-at-the-integration-level) for steps.\n\n## Automated Actions[](https://help.nightfall.ai/jira/policies/advanced_settings#automated-actions)\n\nThis section describes the various actions that Nightfall takes automatically when a violation is detected. You must turn on the toggle switch to enable an action. All the automated actions are permanent and cannot be reversed once applied. You can also set the timeline as to when an action must be taken (immediately after detecting a violation or after some time).\n\nThe various automated actions are described as follows.\n\n### Conflict Management in Automated Actions[](https://help.nightfall.ai/jira/policies/advanced_settings#conflict-management-in-automated-actions)\n\nAutomated actions in policies can sometimes conflict. This article explains how Nightfall manages these conflicts.\n\nConflicts can arise in two main scenarios:\n\n1. Both the automated actions are configured in a single policy.\n\n2. Multiple policies with different automated actions were violated simultaneously within the same file, message or record.\n\nWhen conflicts occur, Nightfall implements the most severe automated action.\n\n- In JIRA policies, conflicts can arise in both single-policy and multi-policy scenarios.\n\n- In a conflict situations, Nightfall implements the **Delete** action to resolve the conflict.\n\n## End User Notification[](https://help.nightfall.ai/jira/policies/advanced_settings#end-user-notification)\n\nThis section allows you to configure notifications to be sent to the end user whose actions triggered the violation.\n\n- **Custom Message**: Enter a custom message to be sent to the end user. This message is sent in an Email. You can modify the default message provided by Nightfall and draft your message. The total character length allowed is 1000 characters. You can also add hyperlinks in the custom message. The syntax is \\. For example, to hyperlink [https://www.nightfall.ai](https://www.nightfall.ai/) with the text **Nightfall website**, you must write <[https://www.nightfall.ai](https://www.nightfall.ai/) | Nightfall website>.\n\n- **Automation**: You can either select Email, Slack, or both as an automated notification method. You must turn the toggle switch to use this option. Based on the options selected, end-users receive notification on their Email account associated with JIRA, or Slack account configured.\n\nEnd-User remediation (also known as Human Firewall) allows you to configure remediation measures that end users can take when a violation is detected on their JIRA environment. You must turn on the toggle switch to use this option. The various available options are as follows.\n\n- **Redact:** This action redacts all the sensitive information found in the JIRA ticket's comments. To allow end-users to implement this action, you must disable it from the [Automated Actions](https://help.nightfall.ai/jira/policies/advanced_settings#automated-actions) section.\n\n- **Delete**: This action deletes any attachments in the JIRA ticket's comments that contain sensitive information. To allow end-users to implement this action, you must disable it from the [Automated Actions](https://help.nightfall.ai/jira/policies/advanced_settings#automated-actions) section.\n\n- **Report as False Positive with Business Justification**: This option allows end users to report false positive alerts and provide a business justification as to why the alert is considered to be false positive.\n\n- **Report as False Positive**: This option allows end users to report false positive alerts.\n\n- **When a Violation is Reported as False Positive**: You can use this option to set actions to be taken when a violation is reported as false positive by the end-user. You can either set the remediation to be automatic or manual.\n\n- **Remind Every (until Violation expires)**: You can use this option to set a reminder for the end-user to take action on the violation. You can choose to remind the end user every 24, 48, or 72 hours.\n","2026-08-04T17:15:42.148Z","2026-08-04T17:15:42.182Z","05c5f349-8cf8-41fe-bd8c-b501b466a1f6",[],[],[],"Configure Scope in Nightfall for JIRA | Nightfall Documentation","configure-scope-in-nightfall-for-jira-nightfall-documentation","https://help.nightfall.ai/jira/policies/scope","# Configure Scope in Nightfall for JIRA\n\nNightfall can scan all Jira item types (Tickets, Attachments, and Comments).

You can use specific filters to filter data based on Users, Groups, Channels, or Apps.\n\n## How Slack Filters Work[](https://help.nightfall.ai/slack/slack_pro_policy/scope#how-slack-filters-work)\n\nSlack policies support filtering based on users, user groups, and apps. These options provide flexible, granular control on whom to apply the monitoring. The **Only Include** option is very useful to pick specific required users, groups or apps for monitoring. particularly useful for creating broad policies with specific exceptions. Combining user and group options allows for complex, layered access control. The **exclude** option allows you to exclude the monitoring of unwanted users, user groups and apps, thus reducing the unwanted noise from secure entities.\n\n### Filtering by Users[](https://help.nightfall.ai/slack/slack_pro_policy/scope#filtering-by-users)\n\n- **Only Include**: Only messages sent by selected users are scanned for sensitive data.\n\n- **Exclude**: Messages sent by excluded users are not scanned.\n\n### Filtering by Groups[](https://help.nightfall.ai/slack/slack_pro_policy/scope#filtering-by-groups)\n\n- **Only Include**: Only messages sent by users in included Slack groups are scanned for sensitive data.\n\n- **Exclude**: Messages sent by users in excluded Slack groups are not scanned.\n\n### Filtering by Apps[](https://help.nightfall.ai/slack/slack_pro_policy/scope#filtering-by-apps)\n\n- **Only Include**: Only messages sent by included Slack apps are scanned for sensitive data.\n\n- **Exclude**: Messages sent by excluded Slack apps are not scanned.\n\n## Priority Order for Conflict Management[](https://help.nightfall.ai/slack/slack_pro_policy/scope#priority-order-for-conflict-management)\n\nNightfall uses prioritization to decide which messages to scan when multiple filters are configured in a policy. The order of priority is:\n\n1. User Exclusion\n\n2. User Inclusion\n\n3. Group Exclusion\n\n4. Group Inclusion\n\n**How it works:**\n\n1\\. Initially, Nightfall checks if the file owner is on the User Exclusion list. If they are, their messages are not scanned, no matter how other filters are configured in a policy.\n\n2\\. If the user isn't excluded, Nightfall then checks if they're on the User Inclusion list. If they are, all their messages are scanned for that policy.\n\n3\\. If the user isn't on either the exclusion or inclusion lists, Nightfall looks at group memberships. It checks if the user belongs to any excluded groups. If they do, their messages are not scanned for that policy.\n\n4\\. Finally, if none of the above apply, Nightfall checks if the user is in any included groups. If they are, their messages are scanned for that policy. If not, the messages are not scanned.\n","2026-08-04T17:13:05.133Z","2026-08-04T18:33:00.475Z","fb9c6f81-88e0-42ee-93ba-67b5700da022",[],[],[],"Configure Scope for Slack Enterprise | Nightfall Documentation","configure-scope-for-slack-enterprise-nightfall-documentation","https://help.nightfall.ai/slack/enterprise_policy/scope","# Configure Scope for Slack Enterprise\n\nThis document explains how to set up the Policy Scope for the Slack Enterprise edition.

Enter the channel ID of the channel to be excluded.\n\n### Filtering by Apps[](https://help.nightfall.ai/slack/enterprise_policy/scope#filtering-by-apps)\n\n- **Only Include**: Only messages sent by included Slack apps are scanned for sensitive data.\n\n- **Exclude**: Messages sent by excluded Slack apps are not scanned.\n\n### Slack Tools (Slack Canvas)[](https://help.nightfall.ai/slack/enterprise_policy/scope#slack-tools-slack-canvas)\n\nThe Slack Canvas filter allows you to scan edits made to a Slack Canvas and files embedded within a Slack Canvas. You can choose to scan the required canvases or exclude the scanning of certain canvases. The filter options available are as follows.\n\n- **Specific Canvases**: This option scans all your Slack Canvases and also files embedded within the Canvas.\n\n- **Specific Canvases**: This option allows you to select specific Slack Canvases. Only the selected Canvases and the files embedded within the Canvas are scanned.\n\n- **All Canvases, except for**: This option allows you to select specific Slack Canvases. The selected Canvases and files embedded within these Canvases are not scanned and all other Canvases are scanned.\n\n**Note**: If you do not configure the Slack Canvases filter, Nightfall still scans Canvases shared in direct messages and groups. Enabling this footer ensures that Canvases not shared in any messages or groups are also scanned\n\n## Priority Order for Conflict Management[](https://help.nightfall.ai/slack/enterprise_policy/scope#priority-order-for-conflict-management)\n\nNightfall uses prioritization to decide which messages to scan when multiple filters are configured in a policy. The order of priority is:\n\n1. User Exclusion\n\n2. User Inclusion\n\n3. Group Exclusion\n\n4. Group Inclusion\n\n**How it works:**\n\n1\\. Initially, Nightfall checks if the file owner is on the User Exclusion list. If they are, their messages are not scanned, no matter how other filters are configured in a policy.\n\n2\\. If the user isn't excluded, Nightfall then checks if they're on the User Inclusion list. If they are, all their messages are scanned for that policy.\n\n3\\. If the user isn't on either the exclusion or inclusion lists, Nightfall looks at group memberships. It checks if the user belongs to any excluded groups. If they do, their messages are not scanned for that policy.\n\n4\\. Finally, if none of the above apply, Nightfall checks if the user is in any included groups. If they are, their messages are scanned for that policy. If not, the messages are not scanned.\n\n## Channels[](https://help.nightfall.ai/slack/enterprise_policy/scope#channels)\n\nTo select specific channels to be scanned, you must first click the **Specific channel(s)** radio button. You must then enter the Slack channel ID of the channels that you wish to be scanned. To learn more about how to find the Channel ID of a Slack channel, see [View Channel ID](https://help.nightfall.ai/slack/enterprise_policy/scope#view-channel-id).\n\n## View Channel ID[](https://help.nightfall.ai/slack/enterprise_policy/scope#view-channel-id)\n\nTo view and copy the Channel ID of a Slack channel:\n\n1. Click the required Slack Channel.\n\n2. Click the **Get channel details** button.\n\n3.

Click **+ Add Org** and select a Salesforce org.\n\n2. Select the Salesforce object that must be scanned by Nightfall. Currently, Nightfall only displays the standard Salesforce objects.\n\n3. Select the check box for the Salesforce fields that must be scanned by Nightfall. Nightfall displays a list of Salesforce fields (from the selected Salesforce Object) that are vulnerable to data leaks (including custom fields). This includes fields whose data type is Number, Name, Description, and so on.\n\nYou must select the **Select all** check box to include all the displayed fields for scanning.\n\n1. (Optional) Click the **<-** arrow to navigate back to the Object list, select another object, and subsequently the fields of the objects to be scanned.\n\nYou can view the number of Objects and fields selected for scanning in the top right corner. See [High Risk Objects](https://help.nightfall.ai/salesforce/policies/high-risk-salesforce-objects-and-fields-for-data-loss-prevention-dlp) for recommendations on objects and fields to be scanned.\n\nCertainly! Here's a more concise version with grammatical accuracy and short sentences:\n\n## **Apply Filters**[](https://help.nightfall.ai/salesforce/policies/scope#apply-filters)\n\nAfter selecting Salesforce Objects and Fields, you can refine your policy scope. Filters allow you to scan files owned or shared by specific users, groups, or profile members. You can also exclude files owned or shared by them.\n\nFilters are optional. If you want to scan all users, groups, and profiles, you can skip this step.\n\nTo apply a filter, click **Add Filter** and select an option. Nightfall provides the following filters:\n\n### **Internal Users**[](https://help.nightfall.ai/salesforce/policies/scope#internal-users)\n\nScan files owned or shared by specific internal users. You can also exclude files owned or shared by them.\n\n### **Internal Groups**[](https://help.nightfall.ai/salesforce/policies/scope#internal-groups)\n\nScan files owned or shared by specific internal groups. You can also exclude scanning of files owned or shared by members of internal groups.\n\n**Note**: This filter cannot be used with the Salesforce Profiles filter.\n\n### **Salesforce Profiles**[](https://help.nightfall.ai/salesforce/policies/scope#salesforce-profiles)\n\nScan files owned or shared by members with specific Salesforce profiles.\n\n**Note**: This filter cannot be used with the Internal Groups filter.\n","2026-08-04T18:30:40.678Z","2026-08-04T18:30:40.719Z","a34cd896-1b31-4578-843f-40e48a8b3a94",[],[],[],"Configure Scope for Google Drive | Nightfall Documentation","configure-scope-for-google-drive-nightfall-documentation","https://help.nightfall.ai/google-drive/policies/scope","# Configure Scope for Google Drive\n\nThe Scope stage allows you to include or exclude various Google drives, files, and folders from being monitored.\n\nThe Scope stage consists of two main sections.\n\n- **Drive Selection**: This section allows you to include various files and drives for monitoring. In this section, you can select various drives to be monitored.\n\n- **Permission**: This section allows you to select files with specific permissions, shared with any internal or external users or user groups.\n\n- **Add Filters**: This section allows you to scrutinize your policy scope at more granular levels. While the Permission section allows you to select all the files belonging to a specific permission type and all the internal or external users and groups, in this section you can add filters to include or exclude individual files, users, and groups from being monitored or being excluded from monitoring.\n\n## Configuring the Drive Selection Section[](https://help.nightfall.ai/google-drive/policies/scope#configuring-the-drive-selection-section)\n\nThe **Drive Selection** section allows you to select various drives for monitoring. You can select either User Drives or Shared drives to be monitored by Nightfall for sensitive data.\n\n### Select Drives[](https://help.nightfall.ai/google-drive/policies/scope#select-drives)\n\nThis section allows you to select various drives in your Google Drive to be monitored. There are two options in this section. You can either choose to scan the User drives, Shared drives, or both.\n\n- **User Drives**: The User Drives is the personal drive of the user. The files in this drive are visible only to the owner of the file and other users to whom the owner has given access. User Drive is commonly known as **My Drive** in Google Drive. To select the User drive for scanning, you must select the **User drives** check box.\n\n**IMPORTANT**\n\nIf you choose to monitor the User drives, all the User drives in your Google domain are selected for monitoring. You do not have the option to choose specific User drives for monitoring.\n\n- **Shared Drives**: Shared drives are common storage locations accessed by all the users in your organization. To select this option, you must select the **Shared drives** check box.\n\n**IMPORTANT**\n\nIf you choose to monitor the Shared drives, you can select whether to monitor all the Shared drives or only specific shared drives.\n\n- If you select the **All Drives** option, all the Shared drives in your Google domains are selected for monitoring.\n\n- If you select the **All Drives, except for** option, you can exclude some shared drives from being monitored.\n\n- If you select the **Specific Shared Drives** option, you get the option to choose specific Shared drives for monitoring.\n\nThe following image displays the scenario when you select the **All Shared drives** check box.\n\nIf you select the **All Drives, except for** option, you must also select the shared drives which must be excluded from monitoring.\n\nSimilarly, if you select the **Specific Drive(s)** option, you must also select the specific shared drives which must be monitored.\n\n## Configuring the Permission Section[](https://help.nightfall.ai/google-drive/policies/scope#configuring-the-permission-section)\n\nThe Permission section allows you to add all the files, users, and user groups that match a certain criteria, to the scope of the policy. This section has the following configurations.\n\nIf you wish to scan all the files in the selected drive(s), you can skip this section.\n\n### General Access[](https://help.nightfall.ai/google-drive/policies/scope#general-access)\n\nThe general access feature in Google Workspace consists of three types of access, which are as follows.\n\n- **Restricted**: Files with this permission can only be accessed by users or groups who have been granted direct access.\n\n- **Target Audience**: Files with this permission can be accessed by the users of the selected target audience group. There is a default target audience that gets created when the Google workspace is provisioned. This target audience has the same name as provisioned in the Google Workspace and includes all members of the organization. You can refer to this [Google document](https://support.google.com/a/answer/9934697?hl=en) to learn more about the target audiences.\n\n- **Anyone with the Link**: Files with this permission can be accessed by any user who has the file link.\n\nThe Nightfall **General Access** permission options map 1x1 to the General Access sharing principle in Google Workspace.\n\n- **Restricted**: If you select this option, all the files from within the selected drive (User Drive or Shared Drive) which have the Restricted permission are monitored by the policy.\n\n- **Shared with target audiences**: If you select this option, all the files from within the selected drive (User Drive or Shared Drive), which have general access set to any of the target audiences, are monitored by the policy.\n\n- **Anyone with the link**: If you select this option, all the files from within the selected drive (User Drive or Shared Drive), which have the Anyone with the Link permission are monitored by the policy.\n\n### Shared With[](https://help.nightfall.ai/google-drive/policies/scope#shared-with)\n\nThe **Shared With** section allows you to select the files which are directly shared with any internal users/groups and any external users/groups.\n\n- **Internal users or groups**: If you select this option, all the files which are accessible by any internal user(s) or internal group(s) via direct access (not via link or target audience), are monitored by the policy.\n\n- **External users or groups**: If you select this option, all the files which are accessible by any external user(s) or external group(s) via direct access (not via link or target audience), are monitored by the policy.\n\nFor instance, let’s assume that Acme corp has 10 external users. They select the **External users or groups** option. Now, even if one of the 10 external users has direct access to a file, it will be monitored by the policy. In this case, only if a file is not shared with any of the 10 external users, the file will be excluded from being monitored.\n\nNightfall does not check the membership details for external groups.\n\n## Configuring Add Filter Section[](https://help.nightfall.ai/google-drive/policies/scope#configuring-add-filter-section)\n\nThe **Add Filter** lets you precisely control which users and files are included in a policy by applying granular filters.\n\nTo effectively limit scope, it’s important to understand that policies evaluate files using **two independent paths**:\n\n- **Ownership**: Checks if the file owner is an included user\n\n- **Sharing**: Checks if the file is shared with any users allowed by your policy settings\n\nA file will trigger if it matches **either** path.\n\nBecause these paths operate independently, restricting only ownership (e.g., selecting a single user) does **not** fully limit scope. Files may still match if they are shared with other users in scope.\n\nTo fully restrict scope, you must configure both:\n\n- User filters (ownership), and\n\n- Sharing controls (e.g., domain restrictions)\n\n#### **Example: Testing with one user and all Permissions options:**[](https://help.nightfall.ai/google-drive/policies/scope#example-testing-with-one-user-and-all-permissions-options)\n\n- Include: `test-user@your-company.com`\n\n- All groups except for: `*@your-company.com`\n\n#### When to Use Filters[](https://help.nightfall.ai/google-drive/policies/scope#when-to-use-filters)\n\nIf you select **Permissions: Internal users or groups**, all internal users and groups are included by default. In this mode, you cannot directly pick specific users to include or exclude.\n\nTo apply more targeted control, use the **Add Filter** section.\n\nNightfall allows filters across the following entities:\n\n### Internal Users[](https://help.nightfall.ai/google-drive/policies/scope#internal-users)\n\n- **Specific User(s)**: You must choose this option to monitor files that are owned by or accessible to specific internal users. Once you choose this option, Nightfall populates the list of users from the synced IdPs in [Directory Sync](https://help.nightfall.ai/nightfall_settings/directory_sync). You must select the required users.\n\n- **All Users, except for**: You must select this option to exclude files which are owned by or accessible to specific internal users. Once you choose this option, Nightfall populates the list of users from the synced IdPs in [Directory Sync](https://help.nightfall.ai/nightfall_settings/directory_sync). You must select the required users.\n\n**Note**\n\nIf you have not configured the [Directory Sync](https://help.nightfall.ai/nightfall-ai/nightfall-settings/directory-sync) feature, the users list is populated from the [Google Drive integration setup](https://help.nightfall.ai/nightfall-ai/nightfall-for-google-drive/installation-instructions-nightfall-for-google-drive/installing-nightfall-for-google-drive). As a result, you can see the Google Drive icon before the user name. However, if you have set up Directory sync, the users list is fetched from the IdP used for the configuration. In the above image, the users list is populated from the Microsoft Azure IdP and hence you can see the Azure icon before the users’ names.\n\n**Important**\n\nFor exclusions, Nightfall only checks the file ownership (\\*Nightfall also checks for shared access, but for exclusion to work for shared access, no user or group that is otherwise included should have access to the file, for it to be considered excluded). For inclusions, Nightfall checks both file ownership and shared access. This rule is applicable to all the filters.\n\n**Example Scenario**\n\nFor instance, let’s assume that Acme corp has 4 users who are part of Acme’s Google Workspace. The four users are Tom, Rick, Harry, and Steve. All four users have access to a file. Acme corp wishes to scan only those files which are owned or accessed only by Harry and Steve. They select the Internal users or groups option under the Shared With section. They apply the Internal Users filter, set the filter as Monitor specific and select Harry and Steve. Now only those files which are owned or accessible to either Harry, Steve, or both, are monitored by the policy.\n\n### External Users[](https://help.nightfall.ai/google-drive/policies/scope#external-users)\n\n- **Specific User(s)**: You must choose this option to monitor files that are accessible to specific external users. Once you choose this option, you must manually type the email ID of the required users and hit the enter key.\n\n- **All Users, except for**: You must choose this option to exclude files which are accessible by specific external users, from being monitored. Once you choose this option, you must manually type the email ID of the required users and hit the enter key.\n\n**Example Scenario**\n\nFor instance, let’s assume that Acme corp has 4 users who are external to Acme’s Google Workspace. The four users are **Tom, Rick, Harry**, and **Steve**. All four users have access to a file. Acme corp wishes to scan only those files which are accessed only by **Harry** and **Steve**. They select the **External users or groups** option under the **Shared With** section. They apply **External Users** filter, set the filter as **Monitor specific** and select **Harry** and **Steve**. Now only those files which are accessible to either Harry, Steve, or both, are monitored by the policy.\n\n### Internal Groups[](https://help.nightfall.ai/google-drive/policies/scope#internal-groups)\n\n- **Specific Group(s)**: You must choose this option to monitor files that are accessible to specific internal groups. Once you choose this option, Nightfall populates the list of internal groups from the synced IdPs in [Directory Sync](https://help.nightfall.ai/nightfall_settings/directory_sync). You must select the required users.\n\n- **All Groups, except for**: You must choose this option to exclude files which are accessible by specific internal groups, from being monitored. Once you choose this option, Nightfall populates the list of internal groups from the synced IdPs in [Directory Sync](https://help.nightfall.ai/nightfall_settings/directory_sync). You must select the required users.\n\n**Example Scenario**\n\nFor instance, let’s assume that Acme corp has three internal groups. The three groups are **Development**, **Testing**, and **Customer Success**. Acme Corp wishes to scan only those files accessed by the **Customer Success** group since the users of this group interact with customers and Acme does not wish them to leak any file with sensitive data to customers. Acme Corp selects the **Internal users or groups** option under the **Shared With** section. They apply the **Internal Groups** filter, set the filter as **Monitor specific** and select **Customer Success**. Now only those files which are accessible to the group email ID of Customer Success, are monitored by the policy.\n\n### External Groups[](https://help.nightfall.ai/google-drive/policies/scope#external-groups)\n\n- **Specific Group(s)**: You must choose this option to monitor files that are accessible to specific external groups.\n\n- **All Groups, except for:** You must choose this option to exclude files which are accessible by specific external groups from being monitored.\n\n**Example Scenario**\n\nFor instance, let’s assume that Acme corp has three external groups. The three groups are **Sales**, **Marketing**, and **Customer Success**. Acme Corp wishes to scan only those files accessed by the **Customer Success** group. Acme Corp selects the **External users or groups** option under the **Shared With** section. They apply **External Groups** filter, set the filter as **Monitor specific** and select **Customer Success**. Now only those files which are accessible to the group email ID of Customer Success, are monitored by the policy.\n\n**Important**\n\nIf you have not configured Directory sync, in case of internal and external groups, Nightfall can only compare the entered group mail ID with the email ID of the group, and cannot check for the members of the groups. To check group membership, you must configure Directory Sync. Without Directory sync configured, if you enter a group mail ID, Nightfall does not display the number of users who are part of the group.\n\n### Labels[](https://help.nightfall.ai/google-drive/policies/scope#labels)\n\nA Label is a metadata that you can create to help users organize, find, and apply policy to files in Google Drive. To learn more about Google Drive Labels, refer to this [Google document](https://developers.google.com/drive/api/guides/about-labels).\n\nBefore utilizing filters for Labels, you must [enable Google Drive Labels](https://help.nightfall.ai/nightfall-ai/nightfall-for-google-drive/installation-instructions-nightfall-for-google-drive/enabling-google-drive-labels) as per instructions and create labels in your Google Drive.\n\nYou can choose one of the following options.\n\n- **Specific Label(s)**: You must choose this option to monitor only those files that contain the selected Labels. Once you choose this option, you must select the Labels. Nightfall only monitors those files that have the selected labels.\n\n- **All Labels, except for**: You must choose this option to exclude the monitoring of files that contain the selected Labels. Once you choose this option, you must select the Labels. Nightfall does not monitor the files that contain the selected labels.\n\n### Domains[](https://help.nightfall.ai/google-drive/policies/scope#domains)\n\nA Domain typically refers to an organization's email domain or Google Workspace domain. You can configure Nightfall to monitor specific domains or exclude certain domains from monitoring.\n\n- **Specific Domain(s)**: Nightfall will only monitor files associated with the specified domains. You can choose the option to monitor files that have been shared with specific domains. Once you choose this option, you must manually enter the domain (for example, abcd.com) and hit the enter key. Nightfall only monitors those files that belong to the selected domains.\n\nTo include personal email domains (e.g., gmail.com, yahoo.com), check the \"Add free personal email domains\" box. This automatically includes files shared with common personal email services such as gmail.com, yahoo.com, etc for scanning.\n\n- **All Domains, except for**: You must choose this option to exclude the monitoring of files that are shared with the selected domains. Once you choose this option, you must manually enter the domain (for example, abcd.com) and hit the enter key. Nightfall does not monitor those files that belong to the selected domains.\n\n### Files[](https://help.nightfall.ai/google-drive/policies/scope#files)\n\nYou can choose to monitor or exclude monitoring of specific files. To include or exclude files for monitoring, you must enter the file ID of the required file(s). You can find the File ID of a Google Drive file from the file URL. The format is as follows.\n\n- **Specific Files(s):** You must choose this option to monitor only the selected files. Once you choose this option, you must manually enter the file ID of the file and hit the enter key. Nightfall only monitors those files whose IDs are entered here. No other filters are evaluated if this filter is configured and only the selected files are scanned.\n\n- **All Files, except for**: You must choose this option to exclude the monitoring of specific files. Once you choose this option, you must manually enter the file ID of the file and hit the enter key. Nightfall does not monitor those files whose IDs are entered here.\n\n## Conflict Management[](https://help.nightfall.ai/google-drive/policies/scope#conflict-management)\n\nWhen setting up Google Drive policies, you can include or exclude specific users, user groups, and drives. Users and groups are synced via Okta, Entra, or Google directory. Here's how Nightfall resolves conflicts across configured filters in a sensitive data protection policy for Google Drive:\n\n### **1. Drive Filters**[](https://help.nightfall.ai/google-drive/policies/scope#id-1.-drive-filters)\n\n- **Drive Inclusions**: Specify drives to be scanned in this policy.\n\n- **Drive Exclusions**: Specify drives to be exempt from scanning in this policy.\n\n### **2. General Access** Filters[](https://help.nightfall.ai/google-drive/policies/scope#id-2.-general-access-filters)\n\n**a. If no options are selected in this filter**:\n\n- No files will be automatically included for scanning based solely on their general access settings.\n\n- Files may still be scanned based on other filter criteria in the policy.\n\n- The policy will rely on other configured filters to determine which files should be scanned. At least one of the options in general access filters or shared with filters need to be selected for any files to be scanned via a policy.\n\n**b. Options:**\n\n- \"Restricted\": Files with this setting are included for further filtering.\n\n- \"Shared with target audience\": Files with ANY target audience setting are included for further filtering.\n\n- \"Anyone with link\": Files with this setting are included for further filtering.\n\n### **3. Shared With** Filters[](https://help.nightfall.ai/google-drive/policies/scope#id-3.-shared-with-filters)\n\n**a. If no options are selected in this filter**:\n\n- Files that are shared directly with ANY user or user groups will be ineligible for scanning specifically for this check.\n\n- Files that are not shared at all may still be eligible for scanning based on other filter criteria.\n\n- The policy will rely on other configured filters to determine which files should be scanned.\n\n- The policy will rely on other configured filters to determine which files should be scanned. At least one of the options in general access filters or shared with filters needs to be selected for any files to be scanned via a policy.\n\n**b. Options**:\n\n- **Internal users or groups**: Files not shared directly with ANY internal user or group are ineligible for scanning specifically for this check.\n\n- **External users or groups**: Files not shared directly with ANY external user or group are ineligible for scanning specifically for this check.\n\n### 4. File Filters[](https://help.nightfall.ai/google-drive/policies/scope#id-4.-file-filters)\n\n- **File Inclusions**: If left unconfigured, all files are included for further filtering. When specific files are listed, they are always scanned and all other filters are ignored.\n\n- **File Exclusions**: If left unconfigured, no files are automatically excluded. Listed files are never scanned under this policy.\n\nFiles can be included or excluded by specifying the file ID. File IDs can be found directly in their URL. The format is ID]/…\n\n### 5. Label Filters[](https://help.nightfall.ai/google-drive/policies/scope#id-5.-label-filters)\n\n1. **Label Inclusions**: If left unconfigured, labels on files are not evaluated for inclusions. When specific labels are listed, only files with these labels are scanned for this specific policy check.\n\n2. **Label Exclusions**: If left unconfigured, labels on files are not evaluated for automatic exclusion of files. Files with listed labels are ineligible for scanning specifically for this policy check.\n\n### **6. User Filters**[](https://help.nightfall.ai/google-drive/policies/scope#id-6.-user-filters)\n\n- **User Inclusions**: If left unconfigured, all users are included. For listed internal users, files neither owned nor shared with them are ineligible for this specific check. For listed external users, files not shared with them are ineligible for this specific check.\n\n- **User Exclusions**: If left unconfigured, no users are automatically excluded. For listed internal users, files they own or are ONLY accessible by them are ineligible for this specific check. For listed external users, files ONLY accessible by them are ineligible for this specific check.\n\n### **7. Group Filters**[](https://help.nightfall.ai/google-drive/policies/scope#id-7.-group-filters)\n\n- **Group Inclusions**: If left unconfigured, all groups are included. For listed internal groups, files neither owned nor shared with any member of these groups are ineligible for this scan. For listed external groups, files neither owned nor shared with the external group email are ineligible for this scan.\n\n- **Group Exclusions**: If left unconfigured, no groups are automatically excluded.\n\n### 8. Domain Filters[](https://help.nightfall.ai/google-drive/policies/scope#id-8.-domain-filters)\n\n- **Domain Inclusions**: If left unconfigured, all domains are included. For listed domains, files neither owned nor shared with at least one user belonging to the specified domains are not eligible to be scanned.\n\n- **Domain Exclusions**: If left unconfigured, no domains are automatically excluded. For listed domains, files owned or shared only with users belonging to the specified domains are eligible to be excluded from scanning.\n","2026-08-04T17:14:20.555Z","2026-08-04T18:41:18.672Z","e1a31fe9-c9f6-4ced-860e-b2e35c809145",[],[],[],"Configure Scope for Gmail | Nightfall Documentation","configure-scope-for-gmail-nightfall-documentation","https://help.nightfall.ai/gmail/policies/scope","The Gmail Scope configuration page allows you to set filters to perform the following tasks.\n\n- **Monitor or Exclude Monitoring of Emails sent by Specific Users and Groups**: You can set up the Gmail scope to monitor only the required emails that were sent by either specific users or from a user group ID. Similarly, you can also choose to exclude certain user and group mail IDs from being monitored.\n\n- **Monitor or Exclude Monitoring of Emails sent to Specific Recipients and Domains**: You can choose specific email IDs that you wish to monitor or skip monitoring.\n\nThe Scope section is divided into the following two sub-sections.\n\n- **Senders**: Select this option if you wish to monitor or exclude monitoring of outgoing mails from specific users or user groups.\n\n- **Recipients**: Select this option to monitor or exclude monitoring of emails sent to specific recipients. The recipients can be a user or a user group. Additionally, you can also choose to exclude an entire domain.

Default to scan all emails, if no other filters apply\n\nNow, let's take a look at an example scenario to describe the behavior.\n\n**Example Scenario**:\n\nA marketing team member () sends an email to:\n\nLet's examine how different filter configurations would affect this email:\n\n1. **Recipient Domain Exclusions**:\n\n - If configured: external-partner.com is excluded\n\n - Result: Email will still be scanned because not all recipients are in the excluded domain.\n2. **Recipient Domain Inclusions**:\n\n- If configured: external-partner.com is included\n\n- Result: Email will be scanned given one of the domain is included.\n\n1. **Recipient User Exclusions**:\n\n- If configured: is excluded\n\n- Result: Email will still be scanned because not all recipients are excluded.\n\n1. **Sender User Exclusions**:\n\n- If configured: is excluded\n\n- Result: Email won't be scanned, regardless of recipients.\n\n1. **Sender Group Exclusions**:\n\n- If configured: Marketing group is excluded\n\n- Result: Email won't be scanned if sender is in the Marketing group.\n\n1. **Recipient User Inclusions**:\n\n- If configured: is included\n\n- Result: Email will be scanned because at least one recipient is included.\n\n1. **Sender User Inclusions**:\n\n- If configured: is included\n\n- Result: Email will be scanned due to sender inclusion.\n\n1. **Sender Group Inclusions**:\n\n- If configured: Marketing group is included\n\n- Result: Email will be scanned if sender is in the Marketing group.\n\n1. **Default to scan all emails**:\n\n- If no other filters apply, the email will be scanned.\n\n**Notes**:\n\n- The first matching filter as per the priority listed above determines if the email is scanned.\n\n- For recipient-based filters, ALL recipients must match for exclusions, but ANY match triggers inclusions such that the email is scanned.\n\nThis priority order ensures that the most specific and restrictive rules are applied first, allowing for precise control over email scanning while maintaining a clear hierarchy for conflict resolution when multiple filters are in place.\n\n## Configuring Senders[](https://help.nightfall.ai/gmail/policies/scope#configuring-senders)\n\nThe **Senders** section is used to configure specific email IDs that must be monitored or excluded from monitoring.
