I usually use Protegrity's Data Protection Platform to secure our data to ensure that when we are testing or working on any project, our data is secure. It masks our data from any malware attacks or any cyber criminal attacks.
When I'm working on a project, I appreciate that we can customize the data with Protegrity's Data Protection Platform. It prevents any leakages or protects the confidential data that we are working with from any unauthorized access.
The best features are data masking techniques.
Masking techniques in Protegrity's Data Protection Platform prevent us from unauthorized access of P33 data, P2 data, SSN, and CVV types of data that we usually work with. This is really helpful because it enables us to work with peace of mind that our data is protected, and we end up having more production when we work with data.
We also have the data discovery and classification features. Protegrity's Data Protection Platform helps us to work on structured and unstructured data in any model before it is fully used.
In my opinion, Protegrity's Data Protection Platform has really worked well and has done the best work. What it lacks is quality features, but we cannot expect that unless in profiling types of tools. Masking is layered well in different types of data. I can say that the system works well. I have not had any downsides when working with this platform; most of the time it lags down only when we are working on large volumes of data, and that's when we can experience minimal lags.
The needed improvement is that the system can be upgraded to be faster and more flexible when it comes to speed, so it can handle large volumes of data without any challenge.
I have used Protegrity's Data Protection Platform for the last 12 months.
Protegrity's Data Protection Platform is highly stable.

This is really helpful to us.
The customer support for Protegrity's Data Protection Platform has been very reliable. They foresee the success of their product in our organization by deploying it and making follow-ups. They keep monitoring performance, and when we raise an issue, they respond very quickly. They are usually available 24/7. I can chat with them anytime, and they receive our calls very fast.
I have not used a different solution.
When it comes to money, Protegrity's Data Protection Platform has saved us a lot when it comes to data protection. It comes with a clear framework for data protection that prevents us from unnecessary data losses that can cost us more in data recoveries. It also saves us time because it can prevent attacks that could cost us a lot of time in data recovery and the deployment of mechanisms to recover data, allowing our team to use more time when mapping to know where the data may be scaled. The system has saved us time.
I can see that the price of Protegrity's Data Protection Platform is a bit high, but the setup is flexible, and the licensing terms are easy to manage, usually complying with our enterprise policies.
I did not evaluate other options before choosing Protegrity's Data Protection Platform; we just made the first decision after coming across this platform. We wanted to scale first to see how it works before we evaluate other platforms.
The performance of Protegrity's Data Protection Platform has been flexible, and I have no other additional feedback. We are beneficiaries because we have benefited from the data protection integrity, and I can say that we are still working to see if we can get some improvements later, but for now, the performance has been excellent.

I gave this review a rating of 8 out of 10.
My customers are using Protegrity’s Data Protection Platform.
We are using the database protectors for one of our SQL servers and another one for other applications where we are making API calls.
We are not using Protegrity’s Data Protection Platform's encryption feature; we are using only tokenization.
We are using tokenization in Protegrity’s Data Protection Platform for minimal applications only, replacing sensitive data with randomly generated tokens, which is preventing us from direct exposure of the original sensitive information. We are using it for account numbers, routing numbers, and SSNs.
Users and systems such as the application team are using the tokenized value instead of the sensitive value. This has been very helpful for us, reducing the risk of exposure when sending the value to the bank, so the transit data is also secure.
I find the features that allow for tokenization in Protegrity’s Data Protection Platform very valuable, as they make the tokenization process happen very easily. I create the data elements, and it is very user-friendly.
The web interface allows me to create a data element and add that data element to the rule set, and the URL will be created so that the application team can make the API call. It is a hassle-free transaction between the Protegrity appliance and the application, which I love. For applications that cannot use API calls, we are using the protectors, which are also very easy to use and user-friendly.
The ability to implement fine-grained control in Protegrity’s Data Protection Platform is good, and it helps with our data protection processes.
Auditing data access and usage in Protegrity’s Data Protection Platform is very important for meeting compliance requirements. It helps us track who can access sensitive data, when it is accessed, and how it is used.
We maintain an audit server, such as Splunk or other servers, where all the logs have been transferred. Unauthorized access attempts and all logs are captured, which improves accountability and helps us identify security risks.
We evaluate the analytics in Protegrity’s Data Protection Platform for identifying data security trends and vulnerabilities, and currently, we are using version 9.1. In this version, we do face a few vulnerabilities, but the bugs cannot be fixed. They asked us to upgrade, but since our applications are on old legacy servers, a few vulnerabilities remain, and we are managing them that way.
Improving Protegrity’s Data Protection Platform can involve several features. There are fields such as keys, signing keys, and member keys that I do not know why they have been used, but they automatically get rotated from the back end. If someone mistakenly does something, it might be hard for them to understand what went wrong. I found four different keys, so it could help to have a more straightforward mechanism. I also feel that they should provide update capabilities for older versions, as even we are using an old version and updates are not done automatically, which poses a challenge.
Regarding Protegrity’s Data Protection Platform's room for improvement, I mentioned automatic key rotation and patch updates. They can improve monitoring for antivirus and real-time security alerts. Automated audit reports are possible, and increasing the visibility of the database dashboard we have would be great if it were more understandable.
I have been working with Protegrity’s Data Protection Platform for nearly five years, and I do have experience in handling the Protegrity tool.
I would rate the technical support by Protegrity a ten because they are very proactive. We have a monthly call with them, and even if I send an email without creating a support case, they respond to me. They will also create a support ticket, and if I raise a support ticket, they act quickly based on the priority.
Protegrity’s Data Protection Platform is good, and I have not used any other devices or appliances, but so far, in my experience, it is a good tool and user-friendly.
The initial setup of Protegrity’s Data Protection Platform is very easy; they provided us with a guidebook and a runbook that explained each step clearly, making installation very easy.

We use the solution to encrypt sensitive data like PII data. Any unauthorized person cannot find the exact sensitive value in case of data issues. We are using that tool to protect sensitive data.
Protegrity has given us various options. For example, if your system is not compatible to do some actions, it will bend it in such a way. They provide solutions to help the system adapt to the tokenization for sensitive data. They are providing very good protection.
Protegrity is using a different OS, which has some bugs. Sometimes, it's causing an initialization error.
The product is stable.
Protegrity is a very interactive and accessible tool. There is no hard thing we were facing.
Our company has around 30+ users using this solution, including one administrator.
There are some different steps or changes or some bugs. We contacted the Protegrity support team, who responded in less than four hours.
The initial setup is easy. We have various applications, and establishing the connection between the Protegrity and the application was quite difficult.
The deployment can be done in one week if everything is ready, including network, application, and OS compatibility.
Protegrity provided the user manual. We followed the steps that they gave. We use the Linux platform. Everything was documented, and with the help of their solution architect, we did the procedures, and it was very easy.
The solution has moderate pricing.
Protegrity is an easy-access tool, and its team will help you from the beginning of the architecture. They will tell you about the bugs or errors from the application point of view that can be rectified from your end. The Protegrity team will give all this information. Until the completion of implementation, they will stay with you, and post-implementation also, they will help you.
I will give the topmost rating because of the easy UI, supporting and troubleshooting document, and the upgrade guide. Everything is perfect. Whatever the changes they are making in their environment, they are updating us over email. If you forget to let them know that your issue is not resolved. They will send you continuous emails even after 10 or 20 days. They keep on following up on your issue in a very decent manner. Their support is also perfect, even on Saturday and Sunday. They do not hesitate to help you. They will Understand your issue and its severity and help you.
