Regula Rolls Out Personal Data Masking Across All Solutions for Easier Privacy Compliance
RESTON, Va., May 27, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — To help organizations stay ahead of tightening data privacy regulations, Regula, a global developer of identity verification solutions, has extended its personal data masking functionality to , 28% of companies cite regulatory compliance as the primary reason for implementing identity verification solutions. Among large enterprises, that figure rises to 35%.
The new capability allows document experts to easily blur or hide personally identifiable information (PII), such as names, photos, and ID numbers, directly within forensic workflows. This ensures that sensitive data is handled responsibly while meeting strict global requirements like GDPR, CCPA, and others.
“Regula’s forensic tools are trusted by professionals who handle the most sensitive identity documents, so privacy and compliance can’t be an afterthought,” said Ihar Kliashchou, Chief Technology Officer at Regula. “With one-click data masking now built into our ID verification tools, experts can instantly anonymize personal information during analysis, enabling secure, compliant workflows for audits, training, or database creation, without sacrificing speed or accuracy.”
