Class CharacterMaskConfig.Builder (3.56.0) 

public static final class CharacterMaskConfig.Builder extends GeneratedMessageV3.Builder<CharacterMaskConfig.Builder> implements CharacterMaskConfigOrBuilder

Partially mask a string by replacing a given number of characters with a fixed character. Masking can start from the beginning or end of the string. This can be used on data of any type (numbers, longs, and so on) and when de-identifying structured data we'll attempt to preserve the original data's type. (This allows you to take a long like 123 and modify it to a string like **3.

clearMaskingCharacter()

public CharacterMaskConfig.Builder clearMaskingCharacter()

Character to use to mask the sensitive values&mdash;for example, for an alphabetic string such as a name, or 0 for a numeric string such as ZIP code or credit card number. This string must have a length of 1. If not supplied, this value defaults to for strings, and 0 for digits.

clearNumberToMask()

public CharacterMaskConfig.Builder clearNumberToMask()

Number of characters to mask. If not set, all matching chars will be masked. Skipped characters do not count towards this tally.

If number_to_mask is negative, this denotes inverse masking. Cloud DLP masks all but a number of characters. For example, suppose you have the following values:

  • masking_character is *
  • number_to_mask is -4
  • reverse_order is false
  • CharsToIgnore includes -

  • Input string is 1234-5678-9012-3456

    The resulting de-identified string is *---3456. Cloud DLP masks all but the last four characters. If reverse_order is true, all but the first four characters are masked as 1234---*.
