Abstract: 
The increasing number of organizations worldwide must protect vital information from unapproved access in the present data-centered environment. The powerful Dynamic Data Masking technology enables organizations to protect data by letting users access specific details according to their roles and privileges. Real-time change operations of DDM transform how data appears while simultaneously keeping stored data untouched. The article analyzes DDM principles and deployment approaches and dissects its advantages in different organizational settings. The article utilizes examples from the technology, financial, and healthcare sectors to display how DDM enables regulatory compliance and safeguards organizations against insider and external attacks. The paper provides solutions to address system compatibility and performance overhead challenges that emerge during DDM implementation while discussing practical recommendations.  DDM analysis demonstrates its crucial position in modern data defense systems and its transformative effect on organizational sensitive information management.
