In addition to preventing theft of data by criminal intruders, internal staff, contractors and business partners should only be allowed to see the specific data to which they are authorized.
In fact, industry and state regulations such as PCI-DSS, HIPAA, GDPR and more mandate encryption of personally identifiable information (PII), payment card information (PCI) and personal health information (PHI).
In addition to data encryption, tokenisation may also be used to replace sensitive data with replacement (token) values. Tokenisation removes sensitive data from the production server, removing that server from the scope of compliance.Â
