Dev and Test Privacy Process

Package 4 of 5. We put a data privacy process in place for your development and testing environments: who asks for data, how it is masked, who checks it and how it gets delivered. The result is a repeatable process your teams can follow and automate.

BENEFITS

Make safe test data part of the workflow

Replace one-off requests and manual steps with a clear, documented process for getting safe data into dev and test environments.

Move beyond tribal knowledge. Replace one‑off approvals and informal rules with documented workflows that survive team changes and audits.

Design for automation from day one. Structure the process so it can run through C² Data Privacy, your masking tools and your workflow systems.

Make the secure path the easy path. Build the privacy checks into the way developers and testers already work, so they do not need exceptions.

Show how it really works. Process flows, roles and documents that match what happens in your dev and test environments.

HOW IT WORKS

How we do it

A structured process tailored to your environment, with workshops, design documents and a pilot.

Step 1: Discover

Map how data gets into your dev and test environments today, who asks for it, and where real data is exposed.

Step 2: Design

Agree the target process with your teams: who does what, when masking runs and how requests are approved. We capture it in process diagrams and a RACI.

Step 3: Build

Deliver the process designs, de-identification playbooks, data flow diagrams and operations guides.

Step 4: Pilot and refine

Run the new process on a few high-value applications, then refine it before rolling it out.

WHY AXIS

Why teams choose Axis

We focus on solutions, not just products, and we stay involved until the new way of working actually takes hold.

Tested, systematic approach. A structured method that eliminates trial‑and‑error and scales from a single application to hundreds of systems and databases.

Deep implementation experience. More than two decades designing and operating data privacy processes in complex, multi‑platform environments with legacy and cloud systems.

Technology‑aware, but process‑first. We know C² Data Privacy, masking, encryption, tokenization, and privacy tools well, but we start with how your business runs and fit technology into that, not the other way around.

Ability to operate and refine. Axis can help you run and improve the processes over time, not just design them once and leave.
