Many organisations realise the benefits that lie within the data they collect daily. This modern approach to data empowers businesses to leverage data for innovation and monetization while at the same time enhancing security and privacy. While this may seem like a conundrum as companies have traditionally buried their data deep into IT architecture to prevent it from being accessible, even by the employees, today it is possible to have the best of both. This process starts with the cloud.

What is tokenization? This method revolutionized the modern way we protect data. In today’s age, InfoSec teams can deploy keyless and reversible methods with tokens, which replace sensitive Personal Identifiable Information (PII) and store this information in both vaulted and vaultess token look-up tables. When the data is needed, it can be re-identified and accessed by the right parties, ensuring sensitive information remains protected. Watch above to learn more about this revolutionary data protection method.
