CCPA and GDPR: Personal Data in Dev and Test

Keep real personal data out of your development and testing environments.

Safe test data for teams that handle personal data

CCPA and GDPR both protect personal data wherever it is copied, and test environments are one of the most common places it ends up. Axis helps your teams find personal data in those environments, mask it and put a repeatable process in place so it stays protected.

We focus on development and testing. Your legal and privacy teams own the wider compliance program; we make sure the data your engineers and testers use does not expose real people. Where it fits, Axis uses C² Data Privacy to find personal data faster.

WHY IT MATTERS

Why dev and test data matters for CCPA and GDPR

Both laws protect personal data, wherever it is stored. Copies of production data in dev and test environments often hold the same personal data with fewer controls around them. Masking those copies means they no longer expose real people.

CCPA

Protects the personal data of California residents. Masked test data helps keep that data out of places where it is not needed.

GDPR

Protects the personal data of people in the EU and asks for data protection by design and by default.
