Discover the PII
you forgot you had
The PII Scanner brings Shielk's Canadian entity detection directly into Valdra. It surfaces undeclared personal information across your data inventory, documents, and cloud assets. It recognizes Canadian identifiers, from SINs and health card numbers to Indigenous identifiers, so you can govern what you actually hold.

Runs across uploaded documents, spreadsheets, and connected cloud storage to find personal information wherever it actually lives.
Surfaces Shadow Data
Flags PII that never made it into your data inventory — the forgotten exports and attachments that turn a breach into a big one.

Frequently asked questions
What kinds of personal information can it detect?
Canadian-specific identifiers, including Social Insurance Numbers, provincial health card numbers, driver's licences, passport numbers, and financial identifiers, not just generic patterns.
Where is my data processed?
Entirely in Canada. The scanner is powered by Shielk, which runs on Canadian infrastructure and stores nothing it scans.
How is this different from data discovery?
Data Discovery inventories where personal data lives across systems; the PII Scanner uses Shielk's entity detection to find specific personal information inside documents and files, including shadow data you did not know you had.
