Claim 6:
7. A method for configuring a system that selectively obfuscates data transmitted between servers and end-user devices, the method comprising:
implementing a proxy serve that is configured to operate as an intermediary node between one or more servers and an end-user device requesting access to a service from a first server from the one or more servers, wherein the proxy server is configured to implement an obfuscation engine to selectively obfuscate at least some data included in traffic sent from the first server to the end-user device based on a first set of rules specifying one or more categories of data to be obfuscated;
rendering, at a computing device, a user interface for an administrator tool;
receiving, via the user interface, a requested change to the first set of rules;
transmitting the requested change to the proxy server to cause the proxy server to generate an updated set of rules in accordance with the requested change and to change a manner in which the obfuscation engine at the proxy server selectively obfuscates the traffic from the first server to the end-user device;
receiving a requested change to a second set of rules that stipulates whether traffic transmitted from a second server of the one or more servers should be: (i) analyzed by the obfuscation engine to determine whether or not the traffic includes any fields that should be obfuscated according to the second set of rules; or (ii) forwarded to the end-user device without analyzing the traffic for fields to be obfuscated; and
updating the second set of rules, at the proxy server, in accordance with the requested change.
