# Masking

Masks can be used to control the visual format of configurable fields and fixed fields by modifying its entered and persisted data that is entered on the screen for visual purposes only. Parts of the data may be replaced with characters and validations can be performed on the entered values to ensure they meet field requirements.

## Configuration Requirements

- Define Security Levels for Masks: There are four security levels defined in AsCodeMaskSecurityLevel: Restrictive, Medium, High and No Security. Navigate to Admin Explorer | Administration | Code Names | AsCodeMaskSecurityLevel to view these levels.
- Create Masks: There are three masks configured in the Admin Explorer Mask Editor: CorporateTaxID, TaxID, USPhoneMask. Navigate to Admin Explorer | Administration | Masks to view these masks.
