Case Study: a large aerospace and defense organization masks sensitive data with Imperva Camouflage

a large aerospace and defense organization secures 1 billion records with Imperva

A large aerospace and defense organization needed to protect the sensitive personally identifiable information of its 170,000+ employees housed within one of the world's largest PeopleSoft databases. Their challenge was to find a data masking solution that would bolster security for activities like software development and offshoring without compromising the efficiency of those database projects. They initiated a competitive procurement process to address this need.

The organization selected Imperva and its Camouflage data masking technology to de-identify sensitive information. The solution was successfully implemented, enabling secure outsourcing and testing while maintaining realistic data for accuracy. The results were so positive that its use was expanded enterprise-wide. Imperva Camouflage now efficiently handles over one billion records, was approved as the company's enterprise standard, and was upgraded to a worldwide license.
