Securing Database by Using with Masking Method

Abstract

The development of information technology is growing rapidly, there are so many methods that can be used to collect data in this era. Data has now become one of the most valuable assets. Therefore, we must keep our data as secure as possible. Microsoft SQL Server is a data management application that can use one of the security methods, namely masking. This is done by changing the number of elements (letters, numbers, etc.) and censoring by changing each element of our data identity to X. in this journal, I use that method because it is a method that is no less secure than data encryption and decryption. And also has the advantage of being more efficient for coders. The data used in this study is based on the sample data of the authors and lecturer who guide this journal. This method aims to keep our data safe from the malicious intent of unauthorized 3rd parties.
