The Search feature in Jetico Central Manager (JCM) helps Administrators locate sensitive or business-critical data across managed endpoints. This chapter provides a high-level overview of the information types that can be discovered, as well as the follow-up actions available after reviewing the results


What types of information can be found 


JCM Search supports multiple levels of data discovery, ranging from simple text matches to broad, high-level information categories. At a conceptual level, Administrators can search for:


    • Exact terms and specific identifiers
      Such as personal names, project titles, invoice numbers, internal codes or other direct text matches. See more in Search filters by type of information


    • Files with certain characteristics
      For example, files with a particular name, extension, size, location or creation/modification date. See more in Search filters by file attributes.


    • Broader categories of information
      Such as Personal Identifiable Information (PII), financial data, medical data or other regulated content types.

      These categories are available through Templates, Presets and AI-powered Categories, which allow JCM to recognize whole information classes even when exact keywords are unknown.

Once the data is discovered, Administrators can review and filter the Search Results to understand where sensitive information is located and how it is used across managed endpoints. After reviewing the findings, they can choose one of the following actions:
