Hash processor
Hides the original data through hashing.
The Hash processor allows you to protect sensitive data such as PII by using the 256 bit version of the Fowler-Noll-Vo algorithm. The original data is altered and replaced with a functional substitute.
Usage
The Hash processor requires one input flow and can generate only one output flow.
Properties
