is a data security product that operates between a client and a database to prevent unauthorized access to sensitive information.
Dynamic Data Masking
intercepts requests sent to the database and applies data masking rules to the request to mask the data before it is sent back to the client.
You can use
Dynamic Data Masking
to mask or prevent access to sensitive data stored in production and non-production databases managed by the
MDM Hub
. You set up the connection rules to identify incoming requests and security rules to define how you want to mask the data.
Dynamic Data Masking
monitors incoming database requests from the
MDM Hub
and modifies the database request before it sends the request to the database. The database processes the modified request and returns masked results to
Dynamic Data Masking
.
Dynamic Data Masking
then sends the results to the
MDM Hub
.
You can use
Dynamic Data Masking
to mask data for specific types of database requests or you can restrict access to data from certain groups within an organization. For example, you can create a rule to apply a masking function to credit card numbers when the database request comes from a support team member. When
Dynamic Data Masking
sends the data back to the
MDM Hub
, the support team member sees the masked numbers instead of the real credit card numbers.
To use
Dynamic Data Masking
in the
MDM Hub
, you need to have
Dynamic Data Masking
