Hey Product Hunt! π I'm excited to introduce **PasteGuard** β a privacy-first Windows clipboard security application built under **Mind At Work**. π ### π‘ Why I built PasteGuard As a developer, I regularly work with API keys, passwords, access tokens, connection strings, and sensitive configuration data. We invest heavily in protecting secrets through encryption, secure storage, and access controls. But there's one everyday risk that's often overlooked: **A simple Ctrl+C followed by Ctrl+V.** Imagine copying an API key from your code editor and accidentally pasting it into an AI chat, browser, or messaging application. One small mistake could expose sensitive information. I wanted to build a tool that helps prevent this before it happens. That's how **PasteGuard** was born. ### π‘οΈ What makes PasteGuard different? π **Sensitive Data Detection** β Identifies API keys, passwords, tokens, and other sensitive content. π‘οΈ **Secure Paste Protection** β Helps prevent accidental exposure during paste operations. βοΈ **Customizable Rules** β Configure protection modes, detection rules, and trusted applications. π» **Privacy-First Architecture** β Detection happens locally. No cloud processing or secret-content logging. β‘ **Lightweight & Practical** β Designed to protect everyday workflows without unnecessary interruptions. π₯ **Free, Pro & Organization Editions** β Built for individual users, developers, and teams. ### π― Our philosophy **Stop secrets before they leak.** Protection should happen at the moment of paste, not only after sensitive information has already been exposed. And your secrets shouldn't need to leave your computer just to be protected. ### β€οΈ I'd love your feedback! This is just the beginning, and I'm building PasteGuard with a long-term vision of making everyday security simpler
