Masking it is basically the same as saying, you can't read this field.
So why not just use field level acls for this?

Hi @Community Alums, Thanks for your quick response, Iam checking if their any other solution apart from ACL's. if we don't have better than this, could you share the solution on configuring the ACL idea i will try to implement.

It really is basic ACL implementation.
Create a field level ACL such as incident.caller_id, and add a role to it.
Be aware you need to make sure, you are not restricting it for the caller itself.
So you will probably (for caller_id) need 2 ACL's one for the 'selected users' and one for the caller himself (and maybe others depending on your implementation.

Hi @Community Alums I think you misunderstand, we are masking field data not complete field here so we can able to see the field but inside the information on that particular field should not visible.
