Inspect Your Database

Objective: Inspect your (fictional) Customer database

About the DLP Integrator Software

The DLP integrator server is a lightweight software component that index samples of your sensitive data using a one-way hashing method so that your data can be recognized by the Skyhigh Cloud without having the data itself (or anything that could be reversed into the data). To save time, your environment has a DLP integrator pre-configured with a fake customer database ready for indexing.

View the contents of your database

  1. At the command prompt enter the following to list your database file. cd /labfiles/edm-training-data ls -lah
