What should I do if Identity Finder locates private data on my computer?

See the Private data quick reference table.

1. Remove the entire document using the Shred feature.
2. If you need the document/database, etc., that contains Personally Identifiable Information (PII), you can redact the PII using the Scrub feature in Identity Finder.
3. If you have a valid business need for the PII, you must contact the security office to coordinate the best approach to securing your PII.

When in doubt about what to do contact the IT Security Office (ITSO) at security@colorado.edu. The general rule is if you don’t need it Shred IT!
