20120246696 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DATA MASKING - A system and computer-implemented method for providing security rules to an existing enterprise database system. The disclosed system and computer-implemented method intercepts database connection requests provided by third-party applications and end-users and determines what, if any, security rules to be applied to the request, including masking, scrambling and unmasking the data, as well as whether the requesting user has a need to know the requested data. Accordingly, personally identifiable and other sensitive information is not provided to an unauthorized requesting application and/or end-user. | 09-27-2012 |
