# Mask Security

Masks can be applied to text fields to maintain input character length, character types (digits, letters, etc) and format the entry including the ability to obfuscate field values from view in the OIPA application. Security for masks is applied at the transaction level, by security group. The levels of security are defined in AsCodeMaskSecurityLevel and AsMaskDetail. The AsCode and Mask editors can be used to make any adjustments to the security levels.

Masks are created through the Mask Editor in Admin Explorer | Administration.

## Steps to Add Security to a Mask

1. Open Admin Explorer | Security | Application Security | Security Groups.

2. Open the Security Group folder and drill down to the Transaction Security folder or page containing the mask.

3. Open the Transaction Security or page folder, right-click on the transaction or page name and select Check-out. The transaction or page security file will open in the Configuration Area.

4. Scroll to the bottom of the screen and expand the Mask section. A mask will only display if it was added to a text field on the transaction or page.

5. Select a level of Mask security from the drop down box.

6. Check-in the transaction or page security file.
