Practical insights about test data for test teams

Extending data masking and generation to any JDBC-compatible database

Written by Maarten Urbach | Jun 15, 2026 12:45:01 PM

In today’s enterprise landscape, data environments are rarely one-size-fits-all. Organizations work with a wide variety of database technologies. Ensuring consistent data protection across all of these environments is a challenge.

With the release of DATPROF Privacy 4.23, we are taking a significant step forward in addressing that challenge.

 

The challenge: database diversity

Most organizations rely on relational databases that DATPROF already supports natively. However, some businesses operate SQL-based databases that fall outside the standard set, whether due to legacy systems, regional preferences, or domain-specific requirements. Until now, this meant those databases could not benefit from DATPROF’s masking and data generation capabilities.

This gap posed a real business risk. Without consistent data masking across all systems, sensitive data in less common databases could remain exposed, undermining compliance efforts and data governance policies.

The solution: JDBC database support

DATPROF Privacy 4.23 introduces support for additional JDBC-compatible databases through a project-based implementation. Using a tailored approach delivered by one of our solution engineers, organizations can now extend DATPROF’s masking and data generation capabilities to virtually any SQL-based, JDBC-compatible database.

This is not a generic workaround, it is a structured, professional implementation that ensures your specific database environment integrates seamlessly with DATPROF’s core platform. The result is the same high-quality masking and data generation your teams already rely on, now available for a broader range of technologies.

What this means?

This update delivers several key business benefits:

  • Greater flexibility: Work with specialized or less common database technologies without compromising on data protection standards.

  • Consistent compliance: Apply uniform masking policies across all your data environments, reducing risk and strengthening your compliance posture.

  • Expert-led implementation: Our solution engineers handle the complexity, so your team can focus on outcomes rather than configuration.

  • Future-proof architecture: As your database landscape evolves, DATPROF can evolve with it.

Built on DATPROF’s foundation

What makes this extension powerful is that it builds directly on top of DATPROF’s existing masking and generation engine. The same technology trusted by organizations across industries for reliable, high-performance data protection.

There is no learning curve or parallel toolset to manage. Your teams continue using the DATPROF platform they know, with expanded coverage.
