BNP Paribas' Story
As one of the largest banks in Europe, BNP Paribas operates in an environment where expectations for speed, accuracy, and trust are constantly rising. Technology is evolving rapidly, and the bank must keep pace — without compromising stability or security.
The Challenge: Balancing Speed, Accuracy, and Customer Protection
Data sits at the center of this challenge. As the fuel of the information system, data is continually changing, as are the tools used to manage it. At the same time, customers expect their sensitive information to be protected at all costs. Moving faster requires automation and rational, sustainable systems, but it also demands absolute confidence that customer data remains secure.
BNP Paribas needed a way to accelerate delivery and testing while ensuring protection was built into every stage of the process.
The Solution: Automating Data Masking to Protect Customers and Accelerate Testing
To meet these demands, BNP Paribas focused on automation and agility, particularly in how data is managed and protected. The bank adopted a flexible, agile data masking approach designed to safeguard sensitive customer information while supporting faster development and testing cycles.
By using static data masking, BNP Paribas can protect customer privacy without slowing innovation. This approach enables teams to work with realistic data in non-production environments while ensuring sensitive information remains secure. At the same time, automation helps optimize systems, reduce manual effort, and support sustainable operations at scale.
This combination allows the bank to continuously monitor the market, adopt new solutions, and ensure the technology it puts in place is current, secure, and useful for its customers.
The Results: Building an Agile, Sustainable Banking Technology Ecosystem
With data masking and automation in place, BNP Paribas has strengthened its ability to move quickly while maintaining trust. Testing cycles are optimized, time to market is improved, and customer data remains protected throughout the application lifecycle.
More broadly, the bank has aligned its people, processes, and technology around agility and informed decision-making. By optimizing its data ecosystem and continuously adapting to change, BNP Paribas reinforces its position as a technology leader in the banking industry — using secure, modern systems to deliver real value to customers.

Being a CIO is very exciting.
It’s even more exciting now because technology is moving so fast.
Our challenge is to move quickly, stay accurate, and deliver the right services to our clients.
Moving faster means we have to automate and build rational, sustainable systems.
We are the largest European bank and rank third or fourth worldwide.
Data is the fuel of our information system. Data is evolving, and the tools we use are evolving at the same time. When we ask our customers what they need, they say they need to be protected—protected, protected.
That’s why we need a very flexible, agile data masking solution. Masking protects our customers’ sensitive data and helps optimize and speed up our testing and time to market.
This is how we operate: continuously monitoring the market, identifying new solutions, and ensuring what we put in place is up to date, secure, and useful for our customers.
It’s essential to optimize the ecosystem—customer data and data from customers—so everything is aligned. Agility, the right people, and the right decisions all work together.
To lead the banking industry, technology must deliver real added value.
