Prevent PII Leaks Before They Happen – Right in Your IDE
Stop Oversharing & Overlogging at the Source
HoundDog.ai’s IDE extensions bring proactive PII leak prevention directly into your development workflow. Available for VS Code, JetBrains, and Eclipse, our plugins detect sensitive data exposures and provide easy remediation workflows before your code is pushed to GitHub or other source code management platforms. Developers often unintentionally overlog or overshare PII, PHI, CHD, and PIFI in logs, files, and third-party integrations. HoundDog.ai’s real-time scanning ensures that sensitive data doesn’t end up in risky storage mediums, reducing the risk of data theft and compliance violations—delivering the most shift-left approach to PII leak prevention.
Key Features
🔍 Workspace-Wide Scanning
Automatically scans your entire open workspace to detect PII leaks in logs, files, cookies, tokens, and third-party integrations (e.g., Datadog, Sentry, Segment, and more).
🚨 Seamless Problem Integration
Detected vulnerabilities appear directly in your IDE’s “Problems” panel, making it easy to track, prioritize, and fix issues before your code is pushed to your source control management platform.
🛠 Smart Remediation Strategies
HoundDog.ai provides actionable fix suggestions, including:
✅ Omitting sensitive data if unnecessary
✅ Sanitizing data before exposure (e.g., masking, encryption, obfuscation)
