Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/amidaware/tacticalrmm/issues/1390

I was looking at open source DLP (Data Leak Prevention) software out there and found OpenDLP, looks interesting but it's a dead project, last update was around 2014. It scans filesystems using an agent for files containing clear text passwords, credit card numbers, etc. I guess it's only a few regex, then report on the files found.

Could we give Tactical RMM the ability to scan files in selected folders (or even entire C:) for files that could have sensitive info? This would fall right into the DLP software market and I think could put Tactical on the map in terms of security features.

Take a look at OpenDLP, maybe you could take some of the code?

I have looked into this, it requires both a client and a server much like tactical which is basically building a different system. There might be a way to do this using powershell which would be a community script theres loads of examples on stackoverflow, Id suggest either creating a discussion about this or chatting about it on discord see if others can assist with this.

fq (jq for binary formats) might be worth looking into since it can understand many of the binary formats.
