2.6 Redaction Using Null Values

You can create an Oracle Data Redaction policy that redacts column data by showing only null values in the query result.

This feature enables you to use the DBMS_REDACT.NULLIFY function to hide all of the sensitive data in a table or view column and replace it with null values. You can set this function by using the function_type parameter of the DBMS_REDACT.ADD_POLICY or DBMS_REDACT.ALTER_POLICY procedure.

For example:

function_type => DBMS_REDACT.NULLIFY
