Abstract
A method and apparatus for remediating backup data to control access to sensitive data is described. In one embodiment, the method for facilitating sensitive data remediation from backup images without a separate data store includes examining the backup images to identify sensitive data and modifying remediation information associated with the sensitive data, wherein the remediation information restricts access to the sensitive data to at least one corresponding access group.
