How do I obfuscate PII data?

Three of the most common techniques used to obfuscate data are encryption, ization, and data masking. Encryption, ization, and data masking work in different ways. Encryption and ization are reversible in that the original values can be derived from the obfuscated data.

How do I anonymize my PII data?

Anonymization can be accomplished by replacing the original data with artificial data, rearranging data set attributes in ways that differ from their original form and using machine-generated synthetic data in place of the real thing.

Can masked data be unmasked?

The fact that data masking is not reversible makes it more secure, and less costly, than ization. Data masking software maintains referential context and relational integrity across systems and databases, which is critical in software testing and data analysis.

What is the best way to manage personally identifiable information (PII) data?

Best Practices for PII Security: 6 Simple Steps Identify the PII your organization uses. Locate where PII is stored, and where it moves. Classify PII in terms of sensitivity.

How to mask PII information?

Masking consists of somehow changing the actual PII in the database, either by rearranging data or replacing it entirely with synthetic data. The trick to data masking is: rather than simply inventing new data, the shape of masked data should remain as similar as possible to its unmasked state.

What are 5 examples of PII?

Examples of personally identifiable information (PII) include : Social security number (SSN), passport number, drivers license number, taxpayer identification number, patient identification number, and financial account or credit card number. Personal address and phone number.
