Hey all,
Just wondering if anyone has had any experiences with data obfuscation.
With the onslaught of laws and regulation regarding personal privacy, I am rather shocked to see the lack of valuable third-party data obfuscation tools.
I have been notified more than once by companies that my private personal information may have been compromised due to a loss of backup data, and these are not small companies.
Interested in feedback...

Check out RSA. They have tools that will encrypt data as it moves from the front-end application to the back-end database.

Encryption is really a different topic. Databases/columns/files/backups can be encrypted relatively easily. What I am looking for is a tool that will scramble real data for distribution to third-parties as well as service QA and development environments without compromising sensitive information and not relying upon random data generators.

I'm not sure why not either. It's a good product space and it would definitely help with this issue.
Perhaps a cross join with a table of names, random SSNs, etc. would make some sense.
