Enhance your data security with an automated masking approach

“Data Masker provides truly representative copies of the production database which are a fraction of the size of the original, with the sensitive data masked. It also integrates with SQL Data Catalog, which can provide the masking set necessary to protect sensitive data.”

Chris Yates, Vice President and Director of Data and Architecture, Republic Bank

Top companies from around the world use Redgate solutions

Masking sensitive data across your estate enables you to deliver secure data to downstream environments in non-production databases for development and testing.

Enabling this automatically ensures your data is secure across your organisation – therefore minimising data risk, and ultimately protecting your business.
