-- IRI has established itself as a front-runner in big data management and data-centric security software, representing a global footprint. The latest iteration of FieldShield, first launched in 2011, significantly builds on its predecessor, particularly improving its data classification and discovery features essential for compliance with stringent data privacy laws such as HIPAA and GDPR.
FieldShield V6 not only preserves the integrity of financial, healthcare, and government databases but now extends its support to additional data sources like ASN.1-encoded CDR files, Amazon S3, Azure Blob, and Google Cloud Platform cloud folders. This expansion ensures that FieldShield remains at the forefront of data security technology by accommodating the growing demands of on-premise and cloud environments.
One of the standout features of this version is its enhanced data classification and discovery processes within its suite of data masking tools. The revamped IRI Workbench GUI for FieldShield now supports a faster, more ergonomic infrastructure that facilitates compliance across multiple privacy regulations. Enhanced tools for sensitive data discovery include a variety of new patterns and set file matches, along with improved migration tools for existing data classes.
"The enhancements in FieldShield V6 address critical needs in data security, providing our users with advanced tools necessary for protecting sensitive information while maintaining compliance with international privacy laws," stated a spokesperson of IRI. "The new features and extended data source support equip our customers with a more robust framework for preventing data breaches and generating secure test data."
Integration with DarkShield API for masking PII in semi-structured and unstructured data embedded in RDB columns represents a significant forward leap in securing data across all formats. This enhancement solidifies FieldShield's position as a leading data masking tool by extending its capabilities into various data types. Additionally, the updated PII Discovery Dashboard enhances user experience with new HTML5 charts that provide detailed insights into data sources and classification, improving monitoring and management capabilities.
FieldShield V6 also introduces a range of built-in masking rules, including more sophisticated methods for email addresses, National ID (NID) value generators, and nested functions that enhance the flexibility and effectiveness of data masking operations.
With FieldShield V6, IRI reaffirms its commitment to providing cutting-edge, efficient, and versatile data masking solutions tailored to meet the evolving challenges of data security in today's digital world.
