QKS Group Names K2view a Leader in 2026 Data Privacy Matrix

Nikhilesh Naik, Associate Director at QKS Group, noted that K2view differentiates itself by managing data as complete business entities rather than relying on conventional table-level approaches. This methodology allows organizations to maintain data relationships across applications, providing realistic datasets that remain functional for development, analytics, and software testing workflows.

K2view CEO Steve Kostyshen emphasized that traditional privacy tools often strip away essential context by masking data in isolation. By contrast, the company’s entity-based platform ensures that masked or synthetic information retains the behavioral characteristics of the original business data. The firm is now expanding these capabilities to include agentic workflows capable of interpreting specific test requirements and autonomously orchestrating data provisioning.

These advancements are designed to help enterprises accelerate software delivery and meet regulatory compliance standards without increasing their reliance on raw production data. K2view, which counts organizations like AT&T, Regions Bank, and Verizon among its clients, plans to continue integrating these privacy and automation tools into its unified platform to support broader cloud migration and AI initiatives.
