pdfSweep is an iText 7 add on.
This add on will allow you to easily redact PDF files. Redaction is the process of removing sensitive or confidential information. pdfSweep will remove this data entirely so that it won't be extractable anymore.
The pdfSweep Community source code is hosted on Github, where you can also download the latest releases.
You can also build pdfSweep Community from source.

pdfSweep is dual licensed as AGPL/Commercial software.
AGPL is a free / open source software license.
This doesn't mean the software is gratis!
Buying a license is mandatory as soon as you develop commercial activities distributing the iText software inside your product or deploying it on a network without disclosing the source code of your own applications under the AGPL license. These activities include:
- offering paid services to customers as an ASP
- serving PDFs on the fly in the cloud or in a web application
- shipping iText with a closed source product
