IBM InfoSphere Optim Data Privacy vs. Informatica Dynamic Data Masking vs. Javascript Obfuscator vs. Python Comparison Chart

IBM InfoSphere® Optim™ Data Privacy provides extensive capabilities to effectively mask sensitive data across non-production environments, such as development, testing, QA or training. To protect confidential data this single offering provides a variety of transformation techniques that substitute sensitive information with realistic, fully functional masked data. Examples of masking techniques include substrings, arithmetic expressions, random or sequential number generation, date aging, and concatenation. The contextually accurate masking capabilities help masked data retain a similar format to the original information. Apply a range of masking techniques on-demand to transform personally-identifying information and confidential corporate data in applications, databases and reports. Data masking features help you to prevent misuse of information by masking, obfuscating, and privatizing personal information that is disseminated across non-production environments.

JavaScript Obfuscator transforms readable JavaScript source code into an obfuscated and unintelligible form, preventing reverse engineering, tampering, and intellectual property theft while preserving full functionality and compatibility with the latest ECMAScript versions. It includes powerful features such as minification and compression for reduced file size and faster load times, dead code insertion to confuse static analysis, and domain- or IP-based locking to disable code execution outside authorized environments. The tool provides GUI-driven desktop batch processing that allows users to protect JavaScript embedded in HTML, PHP, JSP, or similar files with just a few clicks, and supports keeping initial comments or inserting custom headers into output files. Advanced controls let you exclude certain names from obfuscation and ensure consistent symbol renaming across multiple files.
