Abstract

An apparatus and a method for selectively migrating data of a virtualized network function (VNF) instance from a first administrative domain to a second administrative domain. The data used within a single process of the VNF instance within the first administrative domain is read. The read data comprises marked data and non-marked data. The marked data is overwritten by anonymous data according to a pre-configured policy. The data, comprising said anonymous data and said non-marked data, is transferred to the second administrative domain. The present disclosure allows determining which areas within a process need to be protected.
