Abstract
A server system identifies structured data for protection and creates an index of the structured data, the index comprising a set of Bloom filters. The server system distributes the index to an endpoint device to enable the endpoint device to monitor for structured data occurring in free text data associated with the endpoint device. The endpoint device may load, from the index file, a set of Bloom filters into memory and identify free text data for monitoring. The endpoint device may then determine whether the free text data contains at least a portion of the structured data using the set of Bloom filters.
