Nightfall can delete an attachment, attached to a Confluence page, that contains sensitive information. This remediation action is very useful for serious policy violations that risk data exposure and non-compliance.
Each time Nightfall detects a policy violation in an attachment, the attached file can be deleted automatically if it is configured as an automated action.
Learn how to remediate violations in Nightfall for Confluence

Redact findings directly within Confluence

When Nightfall detects a violation in your Confluence instance, and you have configured it to redact the violation, the sensitive information within the ticket masked. All characters in the message, except the first two, are masked. As an example, a ticket like this:
Nightfall cannot redact deleted tickets. User activities are generated every time a message is redacted similar to all other remediation actions.
