Case Study: Large Financial Institution achieves rapid discovery and centralization of vendor contracts with Nuix Sensitive Data Finder

Financial Institution Hunts for Contracts in the Wild with Nuix Sensitive Data Finder

Large Financial Institution faced difficulty locating dispersed third‑party vendor contracts that employees had saved in hard‑to‑search locations such as email and file shares while trying to standardize contract management across business units. After finding that many search tools required building large permanent indexes (and the associated storage costs), the firm engaged Nuix and its Sensitive Data Finder product to hunt for contracts “in the wild.”

Nuix deployed Sensitive Data Finder (using its Custom Processing technology and OCR) to scan many terabytes across email, file shares and other storage without creating a permanent index, enabling very fast sweeps with minimal additional storage. Nuix’s real‑time results let the contract team rapidly identify and extract text and metadata, fine‑tune searches for higher accuracy, and migrate confirmed contracts into the central management system—bringing hard‑to‑find contracts under control while minimizing storage and accelerating discovery.
