Mask
Overview
The Mask menu is used to define masking rules that control how sensitive data is displayed to users or applications.
Masking allows OneDB to protect sensitive data while still allowing applications or users to view partial or formatted values when required.
Common Activities
Administrators can use this menu to:
- Create a masking rule
- Update a masking rule
- Define masking format
- Assign masking rules to templates or fields
- Disable unused masking rules
Example Masking Rules
| Data Type | Original Value | Masked Value Example |
|---|---|---|
| Name | Shean Hathway | S**** H****** |
| shean@example.com | s****@example.com | |
| Phone Number | 081234567890 | 0812******90 |
| Card Number | 4111111111111111 | 4111-–-1111 |
Recommended Practice
Masking rules should balance security and usability. Do not expose more characters than necessary for business operations.
