InfoConnect Desktop products include support for several information privacy features that are designed to help you comply with industry and government regulations, like Payment Card Industry Data Security Standards (PCI DSS) that address data protection concerns. You can configure InfoConnect to protect sensitive data so that it is not displayed in InfoConnect productivity features like Screen History, and when sharing host data using Windows copy and paste for integration with other applications. For IBM hosts, you can mask sensitive data so that it is not displayed on host screens. You can also require secure connections for sessions that handle sensitive data.
