Real time anonymization

Use the real time anonymization(RTA) policy to anonymize data entries in real time.

Real time anonymization Overview

Users create an RTA policy by selecting real time anonymization in the Anonymization Policies page, and then selecting the appropriate data channel. For example you can use Virtual Agent with real time anonymization: create an anonymization policy with the Virtual Agent selected as its Data Channel.

Columns from the target tables may be selected for RTA, whereupon active data patterns are used and their policies applied to any valid record entries to the columns targeted for RTA. If an entry matches an active data pattern its associated anonymization technique will be used for anonymization.

Tip:

If you need to change the anonymization technique see Configure Data Discovery patterns.

Real time anonymization failures

If an RTA policy fails, you can review its status with the Real time anonymization failures table.
