Protegrity Vs Protecto

Why Protegrity falls short in critical areas?

While Protegrity’s capability in identifying and masking sensitive data is satisfactory, it is not built for modern enterprise grade AI systems. 

READ FULL ANALYSIS
  • Lacks context: Built primarily for hybrid environments, Protegrity only retains the format, not the context. The result? AI hallucinations, compliance risks, poor quality analysis.
  • Lower integration flexibility: Tightly bound to Azure, Protegrity lacks the APIs which gives the flexibility to integrate easily in a multi cloud setup.
  • Missing contextual scanning: Scans PII by identifying each data rather than understanding the full context, resulting in false positives and negatives.
  • Lower security: Uses a vaultless, algorithmic token generation using static codebooks that is less secure compared to Protecto’s entropy based tokenization
Why Choose Protecto Over Protegrity?

The ideal tool built for enterprise data, optimized to scale

  • Simple APIs: Use sync and async APIs to integrate with any part: preprocessing, context data, prompt, or response.
  • Contextual scanning: Understands the full context of prompt to intelligently and accurately identify PII across structured and unstructured text.
  • Higher security: Uses intelligent, entropy based tokenization ensures strong anonymization to lower re-identification risk. 
  • Context based access control: Mask and unmask data based on role and context so only the authorised users access data they are supposed to see. 
  • Deterministic, consistent tokenization: Generates intelligent, entropy based tokens that consistently masks data throughout its life cycle, while giving AI context in the type of data.
