Introduction

Companies that gather data about their users have an ethical obligation and legal responsibility to protect the personally identifiable information in their dataset.  Ideally, developers working on a software application wouldn’t need access to production data. Yet without high-quality example data, many technology groups stumble on avoidable problems.  Organizations need a solution to protect privacy while simultaneously preserving aspects of the data which are important.

Tonic is automating data synthesis to advance data privacy.  Their solution gives your production-like data for development and analytical purposes without compromising on data quality or privacy.  In this episode, We interview Tonic’s CEO Ian Coe, and Head of Engineering Adam Kamor.
