Create your own content scanning detections

[#1]

Things are heating up as we transition into summer, and so are our engineer's laptops from creating some new detections for you! 

Beacon (soon to be Guard Detect) sends an alert when someone updates a Confluence page containing certain types of sensitive data, such as credentials, financial, or identity data.

You can now create custom content scanning detections, which allow you to get an alert for terms or phrases that are sensitive to your organization.

---

To create a custom content detection:

In Beacon (beta), go to Detections > Content scanning

Select Create new detection

Follow the prompts to create your custom detection.

How to create a custom content scanning detection

Please note: We recommend you create a page to test your detection, and monitor it over the first few days. You can always go back and and adjust the terms if necessary.

Take it for a test drive and let us know what you think!

@Tygrr DosRemedios thanks for this post. I just created my first custom detection - which is meant to inform me if there are any pages that have a mention of a partner we have severed ties with to ensure we are no longer sharing information or data with them!

@Andy Gladstone Love hearing these types of specific use cases! As a teaser, we're working on regex inputs next so stay tuned!
