CST VerdictBased on our analysis of NIST CSF 2.0 coverage, core features, integrations, company size fit, here is our conclusion:
Organizations collecting video from physical security cameras or autonomous systems need brighter Redact Edge because it anonymizes faces and license plates at capture time, eliminating the compliance liability before data leaves the device. The tool runs offline on edge hardware like Nvidia Jetson Xavier without requiring internet connectivity, and its GDPR-compliant privacy-by-design architecture means you're not retrofitting anonymization into a system designed for data retention. Skip this if your priority is post-collection redaction of archived footage; Redact Edge solves the harder problem of real-time anonymization at the source, which demands edge-capable hardware and integration planning upfront.
Mid-market and enterprise teams protecting sensitive data across fragmented infrastructure,on-prem databases, cloud APIs, legacy mainframes, and SaaS together,should evaluate DataStealth for its agentless inline masking that actually works across those disparate environments without forcing rip-and-replace. The platform covers all four NIST asset and data security functions (ID.AM, ID.RA, PR.DS, DE.CM) and deploys via gateway or proxy rather than requiring agents on every system, which matters when you're dealing with air-gapped or mainframe systems that block typical tooling. Skip this if your primary concern is detection and response; DataStealth prioritizes classification and protection over behavioral anomaly hunting.
