Out-of-the-Box Intelligence

14 Forensic Presets

Fourteen pre-configured rules cover the most common sensitive patterns: AWS keys, JWT and Bearer tokens, IPv4 and IPv6, PII (emails, SSN, credit cards), private keys, and credentials in URLs. Rules are categorized (Cloud & Auth, Network, Sensitive Data, System) and tagged by severity—Critical, High, and Medium—so you can tune what gets redacted without touching regex.

The Clipboard Firewall (Ghost Mode)

Background Defense

Ghost Mode intercepts clipboard data in real time. When you copy, content is redacted before it ever reaches the paste buffer—credentials, keys, and PII never linger in plain text. Pair it with the 30-second Timed Wipe for automated clipboard hygiene: redacted content is cleared after a set interval so nothing sticks around.

Satellite Mode & Multi-Source Parsing

Unified Workspace

Satellite Mode monitors multiple clipboard sources and feeds them through a single pipeline. The Smart Trim engine strips log noise and keeps only high-signal lines—errors, critical events, and context—so you get one clean, redacted view across all sources without manual filtering.

AI-Ready Workflows

Secure AI Troubleshooting

The AI Prompt setting pre-formats redacted logs for LLM ingestion. Choose a template (e.g. "Summarize these logs and highlight critical events") and paste: secrets are stripped while the signal for debugging is preserved, so you can safely send sanitized output to AI tools.

Debug Mode & Audit Trail

Transparent Redaction

Debug Mode shows exactly which regex rule was applied to every span of text. See replacements inline—e.g. [IPv4], [JWT], [API Key]—so you can verify behavior and tune rules with full visibility into the audit trail.

Bulk Custom Rules

Enterprise Flexibility

Build and import proprietary regex patterns for organization-specific log formats. Add rules one-by-one or in bulk, assign category and severity, and keep full control over replacements—so internal standards and compliance requirements stay in your hands.

Security & Architecture FAQ

Does SiloRedact phone home?

No. SiloRedact is local-first with zero external telemetry. All processing happens entirely on your machine—no cloud, no tracking, no exceptions.

Where are my rules stored?

All configuration data and custom patterns are stored locally in an encrypted JSON config file within your application data folder.

How does the Clipboard Firewall impact system performance?

Negligibly. The Go-based backend is optimized for low-latency monitoring. It uses minimal CPU cycles and only triggers the regex engine when a clipboard change is detected.

Are my original logs ever overwritten?

Never. SiloRedact is non-destructive. Your raw input remains untouched in the source; the app only sanitizes data within its own memory buffer or your active clipboard.

Does SiloRedact require Administrator privileges?

No. It operates as a standard local utility. It does not require elevated system permissions to monitor your user-level clipboard, maintaining your system's existing security posture.
