Configure Masking Algorithms
Full mask
Mask the entire value and show Substitute value.
Range mask
Mask several characters of a string and replace them with Substitute value.
MD5 mask
Use MD5 algorithm together with Salt value to hash.
Inner / Outer mask
- Inner mask: Mask
123456
to format like12**56
,1***56
. - Outer mask: Mask
123456
to format like**34**
,*23***
.
Assign Masking Algorithm
If you want to overwrite the default masking algorithm, you can go to the column setting and explicitly
set the masking algorithm for the full
and partial
masking levels respectively.
