Camouflage Software Inc. Recognized as one of the Top 5 Data Masking Vendors

(I-Newswire) November 16, 2009 - St. John’s, NL, November 16, 2009 - Camouflage Software Inc. is pleased to announce that Forrester Research, Inc., an independent technology and market research company, recently recognized Camouflage Software Inc. as one of the top five data masking vendors in a recent independent report by Principal Analyst, Noel Yuhanna.

In the research titled, Test Data Privacy Is Critical To Meet Compliances: Data Masking Can Help Protect Test Data (October 13, 2009), Yuhanna recommends that “all enterprises that copy private data from production databases into test environments should mask or generate data to comply with regulatory compliance and protect against data theft”. Yuhanna writes that “A data masking approach uses production data with private data masked; therefore, it represents realistic data. Additionally, this approach has minimal impact on application testing, and several third-party vendor data masking solutions exist.”

With more than two dozen vendors that offer data masking solutions Yuhanna goes on to identify the top 5 vendors with a proven track record. Camouflage Software Inc. was recognized as being “a scalable, low-cost solution”. Yuhanna writes that “Camouflage has strong support for all the top DBMSes including Oracle, DB2 z/OS and UDB, DB2/400, SQL Server, Sybase, MySQL, Teradata, and VSAM. It also supports masking of delimited and fixed width text files, further extending the ability to mask enterprise data”.

Camouflage believes that data masking should be a part of any enterprise data security strategy. Camouflage can get your company’s sensitive information secured quickly and effectively, saving time and lowering costs.
