Remove Hidden Data in Your Documents

Whenever an electronic document is created, edited or transmitted, hidden data is added to it. This hidden data, also known as metadata, may contain your organization's sensitive or private information. Yet that data can be shared with anyone who opens the document, be they an internal coworker or a third party outside your company. This can put you at financial or regulatory risk, and put your company at a competitive disadvantage.

Every Microsoft Excel, Word, and PowerPoint document contains a variety of information that remains present, but hidden, until you remove it or someone else extracts it. And therein lies the problem: If you plan on sharing or publishing your Office document, you may be sharing more than you intend.
