Case Study: World's Largest Re-Insurer secures sensitive data with Mage Data

World's Largest Re-Insurer - Customer Case Study

World’s Largest Re-Insurer, a Liechtenstein insurance company, needed a way to protect sensitive data in nonproduction environments accessed by internal and external IT staff. The challenge was complicated by German and English column names, variable data type lengths, special characters, and the need to classify and mask custom data such as URLs, injuries, and diagnoses. The company used Mage Data’s MENTIS platform, including iDiscover and iScramble, to address these requirements.

Mage Data discovered and masked sensitive data even without master data, handled 25 different data classifications, and protected niche applications from a German ISV as well as unexpected sensitive fields such as IBAN numbers in description fields. As a result, World’s Largest Re-Insurer met its compliance goals and eliminated sensitive data from nonproduction systems, and it chose Mage Data after evaluating encryption and masking solutions from other vendors.
