In this tutorial, we will walk through the end-to-end process of scanning your Amazon S3 buckets for sensitive data with Nightfall’s S3 Sensitive Data Scanner. By the end of this tutorial, you will have an exported spreadsheet report (CSV) of the sensitive data in your S3 buckets.
Organizations store high volumes of business-critical information in Amazon S3, such as personally identifiable information (PII), credit card information, secrets & credentials, and more.

As organizations look for solutions that enable them to create a software bill of materials (SBOM) to ensure they’re meeting new governmental mandates for protecting the software supply chain, it’s important to understand the difference between solutions based on reporting vs. remediation. The primary focus of any SBOM solution should be on open source code. The use of open source continues to expand exponentially. Open source components comprise 60%-80% of today’s applications.
Our core values as a company center around our users’ privacy, security, and satisfaction.
