Business Intelligence (BI)
Abstract Syntax Notation One (ASN.1) is a language for describing the content and encoding of message data exchanged between computers (particularly in the telco industry).

Abstract: Now that XLS and XLSX files are now also directly supported in IRI FieldShield by virtue of their new /PROCESS (format) support in the CoSort 10.5 SortCL program, IRI Voracity data management platform and standalone data masking users have three different ways to “shield” sensitive data in their spreadsheets.
Data Masking/Protection
Abstract: Getting the correct metadata in a simple way is an important part of building structured data processing, protection, presentation, and prototyping jobs in IRI software.
Data Transformation
This article is the third of four articles discussing newly added support for Excel files in the core IRI program for structured data definition and manipulation, SortCL.
Business Intelligence (BI)
This article is a continuation of the previous article, which introduced IRI support for XLS and XLSX file formats in the SortCL program used for moving and manipulating spreadsheet data in both the IRI Voracity data management (ETL, data quality, etc.)
Business Intelligence (BI)
In addition to all the other structured data sources that IRI software already supports, it is now possible to read and process data from XLS and XLSX files in the SortCL program central to:
IRI CoSort, for fast sorting, transformation, and reporting IRI NextForm, for mapping, migration, and replication IRI RowGen, for random selection or generation of realistic test data IRI FieldShield, for sensitive data masking IRI Voracity, for all the above, plus ETL, data cleansing, and wrangling for analyticsand to write the resulting data back to those or other targets, including one or more sheets.

The names of IRI software products and how they run have at times been a source of mystery, or even confusion, to the uninitiated. This article spells out the pieces and clarifies their interplay, providing a quick primer for prospective users, partners, and new industry analysts.
Test Data
Automating where you can, when you can, is the basis of DevOps automation. Allowing IRI job script executions which mask or synthesize test data to be handled in the CI/CD pipeline supports this pursuit.
Data Masking/Protection
IRI Workbench contains a section of field-level Data Generation Rules for use in IRI RowGen test data synthesis, FieldShield data masking, and other SortCL-compatible tasks or Voracity (ETL) work flows.
IRI
Since the advent of automatic tuning in CoSort V10, it has been easier to work with the many available performance settings in CoSort Resource Control (which we call cosortrc or “RC”) files.
Data Masking/Protection
Abstract: It is common practice to mask sensitive production data for non-production purposes. Creating realistic values presents the challenge of handling new values introduced into production data sources and the risk of re-identification.
