## And against it

- "Focused on LLM APIs; narrow use case and may not generalize well to traditional databases or full PII protection." (Grok 4.20, Data masking)
- "Open-source data masking tools such as Fogger, Masked-AI, and Percona Server - as they may not provide the level of functionality and reliability required by enterprises." (Llama 4 Maverick, Data masking)
