Masking Medicare beneficiary identifiers
This scenario applies only to Talend Data Management Platform, Talend Big Data Platform, Talend Real Time Big Data Platform, Talend Data Services Platform, Talend MDM Platform and Talend Data Fabric.
For more technologies supported by Talend, see Talend components.
Using the tPatternMasking component, you can replace personally identifiable information, such as Medicare Beneficiary Identifiers (MBI), with realistic values in a consistent manner.
- A digit in the 1 to 9 range
- A letter in the A to Z range (minus S, L, O, I, B, Z)
- A digit or a letter in the A to Z range (minus S, L, O, I, B, Z)
- A digit in the 0 to 9 range
- A letter in the A to Z range (minus S, L, O, I, B, Z)
- A digit or a letter in the A to Z range (minus S, L, O, I, B, Z)
- A digit in the 0 to 9 range
- A letter in the A to Z range (minus S, L, O, I, B, Z)
- A letter in the A to Z range (minus S, L, O, I, B, Z)
- A digit in the 0 to 9 range
- A digit in the 0 to 9 range
For example, 1EG4-TE5-MK73 is a valid MBI.
This scenario describes a Job which uses the following components:
-
the tFixedFlowInput component generates MBIs;
-
the tPatternMasking component replaces the original MBIs with random digits or letters from a set of named values, or a random digit from a specified range;
-
the tLogRow component outputs the substitute data set.
