Sandbox De-identification Fields
Updated over a week ago

Below you will find a list of all the fields which can be de-identified in your Penelope Sandbox. The exact fields will depend on the type/s of Sandbox your agency has chosen.


In this article


Important Information

  • Only the fields listed below are being masked. If the field is not listed then the data will remain.

  • Unless otherwise stated, if a field is being masked it will contain the text –masked– regardless of whether or not the field has data in it (i.e. if a field does not have data in it, it is considered null).

  • Some fields are de-identified using a specialized masking value instead of the text –masked–. This is being done so that the data (i.e. phone numbers and addresses) has a more realistic look, even though the data is fake. See Specialized Masking below for a list of field types and fake values to be applied.

  • Attachments are not copied when a Sandbox is created. The list of attachments names will be removed from the database.

  • Custom database tables will not be de-identified.

  • Database Tables with names starting with custom_migration, custom_ind_migration or custom_doc_migration will be dropped.
