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.

...

  • Crypto - Uses cryptographic algorithm that can be configured to either derive its key from a passphrase or a Keystore. It uses either AES-128 or AES-256 for data encryption. The data can be unmasked later when required. 

  • Database - Enables data model masking to store masked and unmasked data. The data can be unmasked later when required.

  • Hash (one way) - Employs a salt-based encryption scheme for obscuring data only. All masked data using this method cannot be unmasked.

  • Hash/Database - Uses a combination of the database and hash mode. The data can be unmasked later when required. 

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

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

This is field is enabled when the Custom option is selected. It is a regular expression to extract characters based on the default characters list.

String Length (Available when Custom is selected)Specify LengthThis is field is enabled when the Custom option is selected. Specify the length of the output string.
Output Format (NonThis field is non-editable)Display . It displays the supported character list and sample output preview.
