Data masking
Replacing sensitive data fields with anonymised substitutes in non-production environments. Example: in staging, real customer names and emails are replaced with fake ones preventing accidental exposure during development and testing.
How PURIST uses this
This concept is built into every automation we deploy.
When PURIST builds your automation, Data masking is not an optional consideration it is part of the production standard. Our workflows are tested against edge cases, monitored 24/7, and built to handle what happens when things don't go as expected.
Every client workflow we deploy in the Security category is designed with this principle in mind from day one not added as an afterthought.
Complexity level
Requires some familiarity with automation concepts.
