QUESTION POSED ON: 31 May 2005
Does SAP support industry standards of data obfuscation algorithms? For example, scrambling sensitive data for testing and training purposes?

To my knowledge, the answer is no. I tried to do some research and couldn't find anything on the subject.

We usually scramble our own data for training and testing. I have a program that I wrote that allows me to enter a set of possible values for items that the customer considers sensitive and then overwrite the data with the substitute values.
