Abstract
A method and system for anonymizing data is disclosed. Data to be anonymized is received by an anonymization system. A request for a data encryption key is generated. A masked data encryption key is received in response to the request. The data encryption key is retrieved from the masked data encryption key. The data is anonymized using an anonymization module to derive an anonymized data using the data encryption key.
