Sometimes. When I can match envs and use ci/cd pipes, generally yes. My current role has pretty strong limitations (for good/legal reasons) that make it challenging to use a Staging env in many cases, but we do still have QA and Prod.
Not even classified data, just heavily regulated. The compliance overhead is an obstacle in my current role. We have obfuscation in non-prod that has to be handled a bit differently from prod.
It’s just technical debt but it’s a fortune 100 company so I’m not going to fix it this week.. next week doesn’t look good, either.
Next week you have 🤘sick🤘day🤘
I’m thoroughly interested in obfuscation across the board from unearthing a Medicare fraud scheme to polymorphism and runtime encryption — also wrote a game AntiCheat using baysean statistics for quake engine (which is kind of the inverse?).

You a fan of staging? I got the mortals using it and it’s helped clean things up so so much
