In the Data Masking profile you configure the masking method you want to use, which UDR types and field you want to mask/unmask, and any masking method specific settings.

For more information on the supported data types, refer to Supported Data Types.

Configuration

The Data masking profile consists of five tabs:

...

SettingDescription
Masking MethodSelect the masking method to be used in the profile. 
Storage Fields

Add the fields to map the UDR fields to. 

Note
titleNote!

This option is only enabled for Database Storage and Hash/Database masking methods. 


UDR Field MappingsAll all the UDR types and fields for the profile to process.
Random Algorithm (Only for String type)

Specify the algorithm to be used for generating the random character.

The supported algorithms are:

  • Default: Default random algorithm. For Crypto, it only supports Base64 format where the Hash or Database are using mixture of alphanumeric and special characters. The supported characters list are: 

    [!, ", #, $, %, &, ', (, ), *, +, ,, -, ., /, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, :, ;, <, =, >, ?, @, A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K, L, M, N, O, P, Q, R, S, T, U, V, W, X, Y, Z, [, \, ], ^, _, `, a, b, c, d, e, f, g, h, i, j, k, l, m, n, o, p, q, r, s, t, u, v, w, x, y, z, {, |, }, ~]
  • UUID 4: Generate UUID string in8-4-4-4-12 format xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx
  • Custom: Filtered character based on Default character sets, filter condition can be configured through Regex Pattern

For more information on the algorithms for each masking method, see Supported Random Algorithm Type.

Regex Pattern (Available when Custom is selected)

A regular expression to extract characters based on the default characters list

String Length (Available when Custom is selected)Specify length of the output string
Output Format (Non-editable)Display the supported character list and sample output preview
