Export to PDFAdministrators can configure data anonymization profiles for different field values of different objects. Then, users can anonymize data in the organization restore, object restore, and sandbox seeding jobs based on the pre-configured templates. For the supported and unsupported fields in data anonymization, refer to Appendix F - Supported and Unsupported Fields in Data Anonymization and Cleanup.
Complete the following steps to configure the templates:
Navigate to Settings > Profile management.
Click the Anonymization profile tab.
Under the desired organization section, click Create profile. The Create a new anonymization profile panel appears.
Select an object from the drop-down list.
Select a language from the drop-down list to anonymize the sensitive information with the random values in that language.
Turn on/off the toggle in front of the fields to enable or disable the fields for anonymization. You can also search for a field by entering the field name in the search box.
Select an anonymization type for each field. The field value will be anonymized using a random value of that type. If you select Custom value, enter a value in the text box.
Note the following:
Select correct anonymization types for fields to ensure you are mapping high-fidelity responses for data fields and the data can be restored. For example, if you select the Random date and time anonymization type, make sure the field supports the date or time format.
The data after anonymization for different fields of a record may not match. For example, if you anonymize two fields using Country and City, the city after anonymization for one record may not belong to the country.
Click Save to save the configurations, or click Cancel to close the panel without saving the configurations.
After you add anonymization profiles, you can perform the following actions to manage the profiles:
