Data Masking Techniques for Insurance IT Systems |
| |
| Abstract |
Companies in the insurance industry are increasingly employing IT solutions to perform and
enhance their business operations. The success of these 'insurance IT systems' largely
depends on their competence to meet the dynamic and evolving demands of this industry. To
achieve this level of efficiency, such systems must be capable of effectively supporting new
business requirements, building proficient administration systems and optimizing their
operational and functional costs.
Thanks to the power of the Internet and database technologies, on-demand access to a wide
variety of data is quicker than ever. While the easy availability of data is crucial for the
efficient operation of any business, this also exposes company data to ever-eager
competitors.
Data privacy is an issue which permeates global boundaries and spans across applications,
databases, operating environments and platforms.
This white paper outlines the business and technological benefits of data masking and
techniques recommended by Patni.
