Optery is a personal data removal platform designed to locate and remove personally identifiable information (PII) from data broker and people-search websites, functioning as a tool for attack surface management. The system utilizes automated and patented search technologies, including matching algorithms and AI-powered automation, to scan for exposed data profiles. To execute removals, the platform operates as an authorized agent, employing a combination of software automation for opt-out submissions and human agents for quality assurance and exception handling. This process is intended to mitigate risks such as doxxing, social engineering, and credential harvesting.
A centralized dashboard provides visibility into data exposure and the status of removal requests, with ongoing scans to detect and address repopulated data. The platform delivers reports with visual captures, such as screenshots, to verify removal. For enterprise and multi-user environments, it offers administrative dashboards with tiered, role-based protection and supports SAML, SSO, and SCIM for automated provisioning and secure access. The system secures information using TLS v1.3 for data in transit and AES-256 encryption for data at rest. Additional capabilities include initiating the removal of outdated search engine content and blurring physical property imagery on mapping services.
