Installation Overview

Dynamic Data Masking is a data security tool that operates between an application and a database to prevent unauthorized access to sensitive information. The installation includes the Dynamic Data Masking Server and a Management Console that you can use to manage and configure the Dynamic Data Masking Server.
Dynamic Data Masking acts as a proxy between the database and the application. You can install the Dynamic Data Masking Server on the same machine as the database server or on a separate machine.
When you run the Dynamic Data Masking installer, you can select from the following installation options:
Dynamic Data Masking Server and Management Console
Installs the following components in one installation process:
  • Dynamic Data Masking Server
  • Server Control
  • Management Console
You can use the Server Control application and the Management Console to manage the Dynamic Data Masking Server on the same machine.
To run the Dynamic Data Masking Server and manage the connection and security rules on the same machine, you can install the Dynamic Data Masking Server and the Management Console together.
