Data Management:Adjust the sensitivity level of fields

Last Updated:Mar 15, 2024

This topic describes how to adjust the sensitivity level of fields on the SQLConsole tab in Data Management (DMS).

Prerequisites

The sensitive data protection feature is enabled for your database instance. For more information, see Enable the sensitive data protection feature.

Usage notes

After you adjust the sensitivity levels of fields, the following rules apply:

  • When you query data on the SQLConsole tab, the Moderate Sensitivity and High Sensitivity fields on which you have no permissions are displayed as strings of asterisks (*) or in a custom manner.

  • To query, export, or change Moderate Sensitivity or High Sensitivity fields, you must apply for the permissions on these fields.

  • A database administrator (DBA) or DMS administrator can configure special approval processes for exporting or changing data that contains Moderate Sensitivity or High Sensitivity fields.

For more information, see Field security level.

Procedure

  1. Log on to the DMS console V5.0.
  2. In the top navigation bar, choose SQL Console > SQL Console.

    Note

    If you use the DMS console in simple mode, move the pointer over the 2022-10-21_15-25-22.png icon in the upper-left corner of the DMS console and choose All functions > SQL Console > SQL Console.

  3. In the Please select the database first dialog box, enter a keyword to search for the database instance that you want to manage, select the database instance from the search results, and then click Confirm.

  4. Adjust the sensitivity level of one or more fields. You can use one of the following two methods:

    • Right-click the name of the table that you want to manage and choose Sensitive Data > Security level adjustment. Adjust the sensitivity level of one or more fields and click Submit for Security Department Approval.

    • Click the 表详情 icon in the upper-right corner of the database instance details page. Find the table that you want to manage and choose More > Security level adjustment in the Actions column. Adjust the sensitivity level of one or more fields and click Submit for Security Department Approval.

      Note
      • If you increase the sensitivity of the fields, the application is automatically approved.

      • If you lower the sensitivity of the fields, the application must be approved based on the specified process.

What to do next

  • After you adjust the sensitivity level of fields, you may need to perform the following operations:

    • View the data whose sensitivity level is adjusted on the SQLConsole tab. For more information, see the Query data section of the "Manage a database on the SQLConsole tab" topic.

    • Grant permissions to users or revoke permissions from users to query, export, and change sensitive fields. For more information, see Manage sensitive data.

  • You can adjust the sensitivity level of fields on the Sensitive Data List page. For more information, see Manage sensitive data.

  • You can also call an API operation to adjust the sensitivity level of fields.
