Streamlining and Securing the Test Data Management Processes |
| Enterprise class business applications require multiple copies be made to support test data management processes such as patch, test, QA, and training. Most companies make 6-8 full size clones for every production application, not only wasting storage and time in cloning but potentially exposing sensitive application data to the test environment. Solix Secure Test and Development provides companies with a centralized solution to manage the test data management process for clone creation, productivity and data security. |

Improving IT Efficiency with Automated Cloning |
| Creating clones is a labor intensive and manual process where servers, applications and storage devices are configured for each new clone, an inefficient process for a routine data center activity. By automating the cloning and post-cloning processes, clones are created and configured faster and with fewer errors. |
| |
Reducing Storage in Non-Production Environments with Data Subsetting |
| Data subsettting decreases storage requirements and increases IT productivity by reducing the overall size of the final database clone. Database Administrators and Developers can select sets of transactions or application modules and remove the data through deletion or truncation, or use the more efficient; Solix Insert Method for database cloning that creates a database template and restores or inserts only the transactions or modules needed. The Solix Insert Method allows IT organizations to create subsets much faster as only the data needed for the test is cloned, resulting in a faster cloning process and reduced storage requirement. Whichever subset method is used, referential integrity is maintained. |

Ensuring Data Security through Masking |
| Private and confidential customer and company data is often locked in production systems; credit card data, social security numbers, financial, HR data and customer lists are just a few of the fields that need to be secured. The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act and HIPAA are just the latest in a long line of privacy regulations that will directly impact organizations that fail to secure their corporate data. Solix Secure Test and Development enacts policy based archiving schemes where specific, sensitive data is masked according to pre-set algorithms before the database is released to the test environment. |
| |
| Solix provides multiple methods for securing data before it is copied over to the non-production environment, which can be configured and executed based on the level of security needed, include: |
- Encryption/Decryption
- Masking
- Substitution
- Nulling
- Shuffling
- Custom algorithms based on unique requirements

| Enterprise customers running Oracle E-Business Suite, JD Edwards, PeopleSoft, Siebel, Baan and custom applications depend on enterprise applications to run their businesses. Coupled with support for custom applications running on Oracle, IBM DB2, IBM Informix, Microsoft SQL, MySQL or other RDMS with JDBC driver support, Solix Secure Test and Development is the complete solution for all test data management needs. |
| |
| Solix Secures Test and Development is part of the Solix Enterprise Data Management Suite (Solix EDMS) that enables centralized management of data classification and security policies. At the core of the Solix EDMS is the Solix Enterprise Metadata Manager, which manages multiple applications metadata for all data types independent of the hardware platforms through a unified policy manager. |

Gartner estimates 70% of data theft comes from internal resources and are responsible for 95% of financial loss. Organizations that ignore the need to secure data from internal and external threats do at their own peril, taking legal, regulatory and reputational risks.
