Abstract
A system for obfuscating data across an enterprise, comprising a rule evaluator; an active rule editor; and an active rule editor repository; wherein the rule evaluator evaluates active rules and optimizes its behavior based on both user-specified guidance and properties learned during system execution; wherein the active rule editor provides functionality for specifying, examining, maintaining, simulating and testing active rule behavior and for documenting rules that are bound to any named and typed data spaces of the enterprise that are accessible through connectors to the data systems of the enterprise; and wherein the active rule editor and repository provide functionality for promoting a candidate rule to an active rule and managing the rule in its active state. A method for obfuscating data across an enterprise using the system described above.
