Does anyone have any scripts/tools that would help in identifying / locating credit card, banking, ssn information across all databases?

There is no one common naming standard which every one follows - so there is no script that can fit you

Alternatively - you need to run a search accross your own METADATA to find possibly which table/column are holding personally identifiable data.
