New release: Automate your data protection process with Data Masker 7.1

Data Masker for SQL Server now integrates with SQL Data Catalog (seamlessly with our new GUI) to let you fully automate your data privacy and protection process, from data classification through to masking.

SQL Data Catalog now comes with out-of-the-box default tags for classifying the most common information types, to speed up classification and provide a guiding taxonomy to accurately describe your data.

These map directly to default masking sets in Data Masker, so you can automate the process of classifying and then masking sensitive data without creating a single masking rule.
