Protect your file and database data from misuse and help comply with industry and government regulations with this suite of integrated encryption products. IBM Guardium Data Encryption consists of an integrated suite of products built on a common infrastructure. These highly-scalable solutions provide encryption, tokenization, data masking and key management capabilities to help protect and control access to databases, files and containers across the hybrid multicloud—securing assets residing in cloud, virtual, big data and on-premise environments. Securely encrypting file and database data with such functionalities as tokenization, data masking and key rotation can help organizations address compliance with government and industry regulations, including GDPR, CCPA, PCI DSS and HIPAA. Guardium Data Encryption's capabilities—such as data access audit logging, tokenization, data masking and key management—help meet regulations such as HIPAA, CCPA or GDPR.

The growing security threats and ever-expanding privacy regulations have made it necessary to limit exposure of sensitive data. Oracle Data Masking and Subsetting helps database customers improve security, accelerate compliance, and reduce IT costs by sanitizing copies of production data for testing, development, and other activities and by easily discarding unnecessary data. Oracle Data Masking and Subsetting enables entire copies or subsets of application data to be extracted from the database, obfuscated, and shared with partners inside and outside of the business. The integrity of the database is preserved assuring the continuity of the applications. Application Data Modeling automatically discovers columns from Oracle Database tables containing sensitive information based on built-in discovery patterns such as national identifiers, credit card numbers, and other personally identifiable information. It also automatically discovers parent-child relationships defined in the database.
