Axis Technology Software, LLC, the leading provider of enterprise data masking solutions, today announced that it has been positioned by Gartner as a leading niche data masking solutions provider for the enterprise in its first-ever data masking Magic Quadrant report. In particular, Axis' DMsuite data masking platform was praised for its ease of use, as well as the fact that Axis is the only provider to offer an enterprise cloud-based solution.

As an early market pioneer and innovator, Axis has always remained laser-focused on data masking, and DMsuite has continually evolved to meet and exceed the needs of its clients. For that reason, some of the world's largest and well-known brands such as Morgan Stanley, Walgreens/ TakeCareHealth, TJX, and Gordon Food Service rely on DMsuite to protect their sensitive information and meet their data privacy compliance requirements.

“The fact that Gartner created a Magic Quadrant for data masking speaks volumes about how far the market has come,” said Mike Logan, President of Axis Technology Software, LLC. “The reality is, many Fortune 500 companies are recognizing the value of DMsuite. The adoption rate of our product has grown by leaps and bounds, so chances are most consumers are doing business just about every day with a company that depends on DMsuite for its sensitive data protection."

In the Magic Quadrant, Gartner specifically cited Axis' strengths as the following:

• DMsuite is a Web-based application, which enables multiple distributed user access to its features.
• Axis has recently started offering cloud-style SDM as a service.
• It offers a user-friendly visual interface, as well as easy-to-learn and easy-to-configure technology, at a reasonable price.
• Axis masks Hadoop data.
• Its consultants are available and willing to help implement and customize Axis’ SDM to client needs.

DMsuite™ secures development, quality assurance, and third-party testing environments by removing confidential data and replacing it with realistic, fictitious data. Because the masking transformation is executed in memory, production data is not accessible within DMsuite™ or anywhere in the target environment, making DMsuite™ the most secure and effective data masking offering on the market today. It maintains referential integrity across business lines and different platforms such as Oracle, MSSQL, Cache, Hadoop, and file formats that include VSAM, Excel, delimited, and XML. DMsuite™ can be used straight out of the box, offering self-service provisioning functionality. DMsuite™ is Web-based and its central point of control enables easy operation, administration, logging, and auditing.
