Description
IRI FieldShield® is a powerful and affordable data discovery and de-identification package for masking PII, PHI, PAN and other sensitive data in structured and semi-structured sources. Front-ended in a free Eclipse-based design environment, FieldShield jobs classify, profile, scan, and de-identify data at rest (static masking). Use the FieldShield SDK or proxy-based application to secure data in motion (dynamic data masking).
The usual method for masking RDB and other flat files (CSV, Excel, LDIF, COBOL, etc.) is to classify it centrally, search for it globally, and automatically mask it in a consistent way using encryption, pseudonymization, redaction or other functions to preserve realism and referential integrity in production or test environments.
Use FieldShield to make test data, nullify breaches, or comply with GDPR. HIPAA. PCI, PDPA, PCI-DSS and other laws. Audit through machine- and human-readable search reports, job logs and re-ID risks scores. Optionally mask data when you map it; FieldShield functions can also run in IRI Voracity ETL and federation, migration, replication, subsetting, and analytic jobs. To mask DB clones run FieldShield in Windocks, Actifio or Commvault. Call it from CI/CD pipelines and apps.
Description
High-quality test data plays a crucial role in enhancing both application development and testing processes, which is why top-tier development teams often insist on regularly populating their test environments with data sourced from production databases. Typically, a robust Test Data Management (TDM) strategy involves maintaining several full clones—usually between six to eight—of the production database to serve as test and development platforms. However, without the right automation tools, the process of provisioning test data becomes not only inefficient and labor-intensive but also poses significant risks, such as the potential exposure of sensitive information to unauthorized users, which can lead to compliance violations. The resource drain and challenges associated with data governance during the cloning process often result in test and development databases not being refreshed frequently enough, which can lead to unreliable test outcomes or outright test failures. Consequently, as defects are identified later in the development cycle, the overall costs associated with application development tend to rise, further complicating project timelines and resource allocation. Ultimately, addressing these issues is essential for maintaining both the integrity of the testing process and the overall efficiency of application development.
