Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about Database Anonymization Free Edition
Yes, it does. Most transformations require that the table has a primary key of one column, except the all-purpose transformations One value and Empty. These can be used on any table. Transformations may have additional requirements with regard to the column length and type.
The plugin has special features to process meta data, JSON and serialized arrays stored in WordPress database tables.
Most lists originate from Chat GPT, generated from a US / European perspective. The non-existing IBANs originate from Random Iban Generator.
No. In this Free version, it is not possible to customize this data. You need the Enterprise edition to do that.
In this Free version, it is not possible to export or import transformation rules.
In this Free version, you have to write those rules yourself. It's not complicated, but it can take some time. The Enterprise edition has built-in rules for common plugins (see features above).
These are stored in the WordPress options table. If you overwrite the database with a new copy, the rules will be lost.
Yes. As of version 2.0, this plugin can be used on live sites (production environments). It will anonymize a copy of the production database as a file that you can download. You can then import this file into another (dev / test) environment. On dev/test environments, this plugin will anonymize the database in place. You should never configure the plugin to anonymize data directly in a production database.
No, most certainly not. This plugin can support you and your organization in becoming or staying compliant. It remains the responsibility of you and your organization to configure this plugin, to run it and to delete any back-ups that remain. Next to that, there are many more aspects to data protection compliancy than PII anonymization of non-production databases.
