Individual-entity data destruction

While wide-swath data destruction meets the needs of the insurer in most cases, there are special cases where specific personal data cannot be deleted. For example, there might be database integrity concerns, or the data to be deleted, such as data for previous employee, might be related to a large number of policies.

In such cases, where individual instances of data cannot be deleted, PolicyCenter provides the ability to obfuscate data. Obfuscation can include wiping a field completely, replacing it with a neutral value, or replacing it with a unique, irreversible value.

The entities and fields to which obfuscation can be applied, as well as the method for determining the replacement value, are configurable.
