RedactX: Real-Time PII & Sensitive Data Redaction

Take complete control of your data privacy. RedactX is an enterprise-grade, client-side security extension designed to automatically detect, flag, and redact Personally Identifiable Information (PII), secrets, server-level credentials, and sensitive data in real time—before it ever leaves your browser. 

Whether you are inputting text into AI models, submitting support tickets, filling out web forms, or sharing logs, RedactX acts as an intelligent data guardrail, preventing accidental data leaks and ensuring regulatory compliance (GDPR, HIPAA, PCI-DSS, CCPA).

### KEY FEATURES

#### 🛡️ Advanced PII & Sensitivity Scanning
RedactX scans active text input fields in real time using high-accuracy heuristic models to catch:
* Personally Identifiable Information (PII): Names, emails, phone numbers, physical addresses, and social security/national identity numbers.
* Financial Data: Credit card numbers, banking routing details, and CVVs.
* Credentials & Secrets: API keys, JWT tokens, private cryptographic keys, and passwords.

#### 🖥️ Server-Level Info & DevOps Leak Protection
Specially optimized for developers, system administrators, and QA engineers. RedactX immediately flags:
* IPv4 and IPv6 addresses.
* Database connection strings (MongoDB, PostgreSQL, MySQL, etc.).
* Server file paths, stack traces, and internal environment variables (`.env` signatures).
* Cloud infrastructure identifiers (AWS keys, Azure strings).

#### 🎛️ Custom Regular Expressions (Regex) Engine
Tailor your security parameters to your organization's unique footprint. 
* Build, test, and deploy custom Regex patterns directly inside the extension.
* Target proprietary internal IDs, custom project codes, or industry-specific data formats.
* Toggle custom rules on/off dynamically with a single click.

#### 🌐 Robust Domain Governance (Include/Exclude Lists)
You control exactly where RedactX operates.
* Whitelist Mode: Restrict scanning exclusively to a handful of high-risk domains (e.g., enterprise chat apps, AI prompts, or ticketing systems).
* Blacklist Mode: Keep scanning globally active while completely bypassing trusted internal tools, local development environments (`localhost`), or specific secure portals.

#### ✂️ Seamless Inline Redaction
Don't disrupt your workflow. RedactX provides immediate, unobtrusive visual feedback directly over sensitive input text. Choose to mask data with customizable placeholders (e.g., `[REDACTED_EMAIL]` or `[XXXX-XXXX-XXXX]`) instantly with an intuitive inline overlay.

### WHY CHOOSE REDACTX?

* 100% Client-Side Privacy: RedactX processes all text locally on your machine. Your inputs, custom Regex strings, and browsed data are never sent to our servers, keeping your privacy absolute.
* Performance-Optimized: Built on modern Manifest V3 architecture, the scanning engine runs on lightweight, asynchronous scripts that won't lag your browser or drain system resources.
* Compliance Ready: Perfect for corporate environments looking to minimize the risk of third-party data ingestion, shadow AI usage, or accidental customer data exposure.
