Workday’s built-in security ensures your financial and HR data is safe in production. But in non-production environments like Sandbox, there can be real copies of that sensitive data for testing, training, deployments, and more.
Elevated access to non-production tenants can give users access to confidential data that they don’t require. So how do you ensure the right people, have the right access, to the right data, at the right time?
Meet Smart Shield – Intelligent Workday data masking
Data masking for all Workday fields
Smart Shield allows you to mask all the data you deem sensitive to your business including HCM, Financials, Payroll, Benefits, Recruiting, and Talent Management.
With the ability to offer different masking rules for groups or individual users, Smart Shield supports all non-production environments including Sandbox, Sandbox Preview, and Implementation tenants.
Works with Proxy
One of Workday’s most powerful features in non-production environments is the Proxy feature, as it allows users to perform tasks and see data as someone else.
Smart Shield allows users to leverage data masking with Workday’s Proxy functionality to perform tasks, but only see data aligned to their masking rules.
