DataVantage DME® Data Masking Express™: Flexible Pricing Options Tailored for You
DataVantage DME aligns your data masking needs with flexible pricing options (Usage, Tier, MIPS) that protect your data and your software investment.
Data Masking in Mainframe and Distributed Environments
Risk Reduction, Regulatory Compliance, Cost Management
DataVantage® software solutions for Data Masking and Data Management allow you to mask, de-identify, obfuscate, view, copy, manage and test data in both mainframe and distributed computing environments. These flexible, scalable, efficient and affordable tools mask sensitive data such as Personally Identifiable Information (PII) and private company information. Once masked, the realistic-looking datasets generated from production data can be used for non-production purposes such as application development, testing, training, and CRM applications. DataVantage solutions enable your organization to protect critical data while minimizing data breach risks and data compliance expenses.
DataVantage® Software:
- Contains data masking functions that employ the latest encryption-based algorithms enabling reproducible and irreversible transformations.
- Preserves logical relationships in the data and ensures that protected data cannot be reverse-engineered.
- Quickly exploits available metadata to generate reusable components.
