Mainframe Masking Plug-In

MAINFRAME MASKING PLUG-IN

Mask mainframe data inside Delphix — without mainframe development expertise.

The Axis Mainframe Masking Plug-In automatically extracts, reformats, and transforms complex mainframe files so they are fully compatible with Delphix Masking and other enterprise data privacy tools. No coding required, no manual translation, and no need for specialized mainframe skills.

Built for organizations that need to extend modern data masking and privacy controls to legacy mainframe environments without disrupting existing operations.

WHO IT'S FOR

Built for teams extending masking to mainframe environments.

Your organization runs masking and data privacy workflows in Delphix or similar tools but cannot process mainframe file formats natively.

Your development or data privacy team lacks mainframe expertise but needs to include COBOL, EBCDIC, or fixed-width file data in masking pipelines.

You are migrating mainframe data to modern environments and need consistent privacy controls applied before or during that migration.

Your organization runs masking and data privacy workflows in Delphix or similar tools but cannot process mainframe file formats natively.

KEY OUTCOMES

What the Mainframe Masking Plug-In delivers.

Extend Delphix masking to mainframe data. Make COBOL and other complex mainframe file formats compatible with Delphix Masking automatically, without writing custom connectors or transformation code.

Eliminate the mainframe expertise bottleneck. Remove the dependency on scarce mainframe development skills for data privacy and masking workflows.

Accelerate compliance timelines. Onboard mainframe data into your privacy program faster, reducing delays in compliance projects that span modern and legacy environments.

Reduce operational cost. Replace manual translation steps and external mainframe consulting with a repeatable, automated plug-in that runs consistently at scale.

Maintain unified data privacy standards. Apply the same masking and compliance controls to mainframe data that you use across relational databases, cloud sources, and modern applications.

HOW IT WORKS

Three steps to mainframe masking with Delphix.

Step 1 — Connect

The Axis plug-in connects to your mainframe file environment via a simple API interface. No mainframe coding or custom connector development is required.

Step 2 — Extract and reformat

The plug-in automatically extracts data from complex mainframe file formats — including COBOL copybooks, EBCDIC-encoded files, and fixed-width layouts — and transforms them into formats compatible with Delphix Masking and other enterprise tools.

Step 3 — Mask and return

Once reformatted, data flows through your existing Delphix masking workflows. Masked output can be returned to mainframe-compatible formats or used directly in modern environments for development, testing, and analytics.
