# Benefits of Nightfall

Nightfall has several key benefits, including:

* Reductions in both the cost and occurrence of data breaches. Nightfall limits the exposure of things like credentials and secrets, which are a common cause of data breaches. Nightfall also limits the exposure of PII and other business critical content, which means that if a breach does occur, its impact is minimized
* Nightfall generates time savings by helping automate the task of discovering, classifying, and appropriately remediating sensitive and business-critical data.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://help.nightfall.ai/nightfall_introduction/benefits.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
