Need to Mask/ encrypt the field values for some user roles

[neerajgole]

Hi Team,

I am looking to implement a solution to secure specific string and date fields based on user roles.

The goal is to ensure that while end users see only masked or encrypted values in the interface, the original data remains intact in the database for our verification team. This will allow authorized reviewers to access the actual values while maintaining strict data privacy for other roles. 

Could you please suggest the best approach achieve the above use case?

Cant you lock down the fields with read ACL's on the specific fields?

If you set up those with a "required" role then only users with the given role is able to read the data in the fields while the fields are not available for users without the given role.

you can use field level READ ACL to restrict the data.

Another better option is to use column level encryption which is free
