What are Data De-Identification Tools?
Data de-identification tools are designed to remove potentially identifiable information from datasets. These tools can be used to ensure that data is anonymized and compliant with data privacy regulations, such as GDPR. Data de-identification methods typically involve techniques like suppressing or masking of certain pieces of data. Other methods like pseudonymization, tokenization, and randomization may also be used in order to completely obfuscate the original data while still allowing analysis of the remaining dataset. Furthermore, some advanced data de-identification software includes additional features for monitoring access and preventing unauthorized use of sensitive personal information. In summary, data de-identification tools provide organizations with ways to ensure compliance by removing personally identifiable information from their datasets before sharing or publishing them publicly.

AuricVault® Tokenization
Auric Systems International
The AuricVault® tokenization service secures your vitally sensitive financial and personal data by safely storing that data and replacing the data in your system with a token. Tokens are random strings of numbers and letters that have no relationship to the stored data. If someone stole all your tokens, they still would not have any of your sensitive data. Tokenization provides what is called data separation. Data separation ensures that no single entity has all the data at one time. Auric's tokenization solution provides fine-grained permissions for one or more parties to access sensitive tokenized data. Depending on your business model, using the AuricVault® tokenization service may exclude your systems and servers from PCI scope. We help businesses protect billions of dollars and millions of transactions securely, safely, and simply.Starting Price: $300 per year -

Babel Obfuscator
babelfor.NET
Babel Obfuscator is a powerful protection tool for the Microsoft .NET Framework.

Babel Obfuscator is able to transform assemblies in order to conceal the code, so reversing is extremely difficult. This transformation process is called obfuscation. Protect your software against reverse engineering to safeguard the intellectual property of your code. Runs on Windows, MAC OSX, and Linux operating systems. Fully managed code encryption and virtualization. Simplify the deploy of your application merging or embedding all dependencies into a single file. Performs code optimization by reducing the overall metadata size and removing unused code.Starting Price: €350 one-time payment -
