Opitm masking and FSDM?

  • 1.  Opitm masking and FSDM?

    I have a question from an existing Optim customer, by way of a consultant:

    Client is a large bank using Optim for masking DBs on mainframe. Client masks data before it goes into Dev/test.

    Client has identified the need to extend data masking to many other databases. Client wants to know if Optim supports DB2 Mainframe, Oracle, PostgresSQL, SQLServer, Hadoop (Hive& IBM BigSQL) with referential integrity across tables in this heterogenous environment.  <Comment from Peter: no problem here, Optim can handle.>

    Client also must comply to a regulation called FSDM. He feels that implementing data masking for FSDM may take years. Client wants to know if IBM has experience with FSDM and how IBM would tackle such a project and if you could give some indication/share some insights as to how long this took at your existing customers in scope of FSDM.

    <Question from Peter: can anyone contribute info about using Optim masking in relation to FSDM?>
