Re: RegEx and Grep for PII and Pentest Useful Info?

Does it use GNU regex or PCRE or something else?

Yes, but for some reason many of the examples seemed to fail to work for
me when I tested in grepwin using a test file.

Hi all,
    I'm looking for good regular expressions to find PII and useful info
for a pentest. I've been using things like:

password|^(\d{3}-\d{2}-\d{4})|(\d{3}\d{2}\d{4})$

to search for passwords in notes and source code, as well as SSN#s. I'd
like to throw credit cards in there, but none of the regex I've seen for
that seem to work in grepwin. I want to "or" them all together to do it in
one sweep. Any other good strings to add?

Thanks,
Adrian
