A Data Masking Scheme For Sensitive Big Data Based On Format

This document proposes a data masking scheme called PRISM that uses format-preserving encryption to encrypt sensitive data like credit card numbers and emails. Existing encryption methods result in unreadable binary strings that cannot be saved back to databases or used as valid information. PRISM encrypts data while preserving the original format, allowing encrypted data to remain queryable. It was tested on Spark and showed high parallel computing efficiency for large-scale data masking while maintaining data privacy.

PRISM: PRivacy Aware of Intelligence Sensitive Data in

Medical Field using Data Masking Scheme

Abstract
Development of big data has brought us convenience and benefits, but the privacy issues
have become increasingly prominent. In order to solve the problem of personal sensitive
information leakage, this paper propose a data masking scheme based on format-preserving
encryption for privacy information. The scheme can be used to encrypt credit card number,
date, e-mail address and other data with tight format limit, and ensure the cipher text is still in
the original format constraints. In addition, this paper propose a solution for large scale of
data masking. Experiments on Spark show that our data masking scheme based on format-
preserving encryption can achieve the purpose of masking sensitive information while
preserving the data format, and the parallel computing can get high efficiency.

Existing System
In order to mask huge amounts of information, some data privacy protection schemes have been
mentioned. The traditional data encryption scheme can encrypt the data irreversibly, such as using
AES algorithm [1] to encrypt the name field. This can mask the name and distinguish different
individuals, but the result is a binary bit string, which has lost the original data format, so it can
neither be saved back to the database nor be identified as effective information.

Proposed System

In the proposed approach a data masking scheme based on Format-Preserving Encryption


(FPE). FPE is an irreversibly symmetric encryption method. What makes FPE different from
traditional symmetric encryption is that the ciphertext of FPE retain the original structure and
format of the plaintext instead of unreadable binary string, so we can save the result back to
database without changing the database system and submit SQL query request for masked
data.
Objectives

 Analysis of data masking techniques based on nature and business domains.


 Introduce new format preserving procedure on the masked data.
 Introduce a new technique to retain the size of the masked data as same as the
original data.
