Why Leaders Treat Masking, Tokenization, and Synthetic Data as One Problem
"Masking protects the data you already have. Synthetic data creates the data you're missing. Tokenization decides who's allowed to reverse either one. The vendors leading this category are the ones doing all three without breaking how the data behaves."
