What fields are selected for masking by default, when using in-place masking?

Written by Dario Messina

When using in-place masking, Gearset fetches some data classification information from Salesforce to decide which fields to auto-select for masking, by default.

You can adjust the selection at any time.

Fields are selected by default if they have either of the following:

  • Data Sensitivity Level set to Internal, Confidential, Restricted, or MissionCritical

  • Any Compliance Categorization selected (CCPA, COPPA, GDPR, HIPAA, PCI, PII, or PersonalInfo)

These classifications are available in Salesforce's Setup pages, when editing a field.

And when you start in-place masking in Gearset, we automatically select the flagged fields on the field-selection screen.
