Abstract

Described is a system for intelligent and reversible data masking of computing environment information shared with an external system. The system may leverage a secure masking agent that acts as an intermediary between a computing system (or environment) and an analytics component. The masking agent may provide real-time reversible data masking that ensures that sensitive information is not exposed outside of a secure (e.g. on-premises) environment, while at the same time ensuring the analytics component receives sufficient contextual information to perform a detailed analysis with the shared information. For example, the system may identify and mask identifying information of a particular server or host, while still retaining certain contextual information such as a network topology.
