Mask sensitive data
Summary
Business sensitive data (passwords, credit card numbers, CVV, etc.) must be masked.
Description
Applications usually handle personal information, such as credit card numbers, CVV, personal identifications, social security numbers, etc. The exposure of this data could severely affect their owners and so it must be considered sensitive and be specifically protected. Masking is a mechanism that contributes to this protection.
