System and method for automatically securing sensitive data in public cloud using a serverless architecture

Abstract:

Systems and methods are provided executing jobs immediately upon receipt of a notification. The systems and methods may include receiving, at a cloud compute service, a notification that a sensitive file comprising sensitive data has been received at a file receipt location, the sensitive file being sent by a client device; generating, by the cloud compute service, a container instance in response to the notification; retrieving, by the container instance, the sensitive file from the file receipt location; generating, by the container instance, a stripped file by stripping the sensitive data from the sensitive file based on a configuration file; transmitting, by the container instance, the stripped file to a storage location; deleting the sensitive file and associated file pointers from the file receipt location; and terminating the container instance, wherein terminating the container instance comprises deleting files comprising sensitive data and associated file pointers.
