Great News! Data Masking is now a standard feature for Fusion Cloud Applications
Attention Fusion Cloud Applications (ERP, HCM, SCM, Sales & Service) users! Starting April 11th, 2024, Data Masking is now a standard feature included in the base subscriptions. This means customers can now benefit from this powerful feature to safeguard sensitive data in non-production environments.
This was announced via a recent blog authored by Arif Mohammed Bin Hamid, Principal Product Manager. Arif shared his knowledge about this valuable new feature.
Question: Arif, could you briefly explain what Data Masking is and why it is important for customers to use this feature?
Arif: Of course! Data masking is the process of applying an algorithm to obscure data when copying from a live system (production) to a test or development environment (non-production). As the data is obscured after masking, it protects sensitive data such as personally identifiable information (PII), from anyone accessing that environment.
