Data Privacy laws require the ability to mask data by hiding the original values with a modified content. Fabric provides a field-level API to protect data that is classified as Personal Identifiable Information, sensitive personal data, or commercially sensitive data.
To ensure that the data is still valid for your data lifecycle management, the masked data will look real and appear consistent.
This capability can be used for conducting tests, implementing data transformations, or providing anonymized data to external 3rd parties via web services or queue messages.

In some cases, there is a business need to retrieve the original value of the masked LUI. For example, a retrieval of a mailing address in order to contact the customer.
There are 2 recommended approaches to support de-anonymization and retrieve the original value of the masked field:
Keep the source Instance ID in Fabric and use it to retrieve the original data from the source system.
Keep the encrypted version (each instance is encrypted separately) of the original values in Fabric only, in addition to the anonymized values. Limit the access to the anonymized data. Only permitted users can access the original values.
