Abstract

The disclosed computer-implemented method for searching unstructured documents for structured data may include (1) receiving a request to search unstructured documents for a document that contains data (e.g., sensitive data) from a structured dataset, (2) generating a secure search index (e.g., a Bloom filter) for searching the unstructured documents for the sensitive data, (3) extracting a first token and a second token from an unstructured document, (4) generating a hashed key from the first token and the second token, (5) querying the secure search index to determine whether the second hashed key is contained in the secure search index, and (6) responding, upon determining that the second hashed key is contained in the secure search index, to the request with information about the unstructured document. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.
