• Key Concepts: 
  Masking pattern is a feature of the Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) User Data Security (UDS) Data Owner (DO) component. It is used to protect sensitive data by masking it with a predefined pattern. This pattern can be used to replace the original data with a random string of characters, making it difficult to identify the original data. 
  
  How to use it: 
  Masking patterns can be used in GRC-UDS-DO to protect sensitive data from unauthorized access. To use masking patterns, the user must first define the pattern they want to use. This can be done by selecting a predefined pattern or creating a custom pattern. Once the pattern is defined, it can be applied to the data that needs to be protected. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When creating a custom masking pattern, it is important to make sure that the pattern is complex enough so that it cannot be easily guessed or cracked. Additionally, it is important to ensure that the masking pattern does not interfere with any other processes or applications that may need access to the data.
