How to use the Free Data Anonymization Tool

Hide sensitive values before sharing data.

Data Masking hides personal data before you share a file. It detects columns that look like emails, phones, names, addresses and card numbers, suggests a method for each, and previews the result. Choose fake data, partial masking, hashing, noise, rounding or removal. Consistent masking gives the same output for the same input, so related files still line up. Your data stays in your browser.

Frequently asked questions

Is the anonymization reversible?

Fake data, partial masking and noise cannot be reversed. Keep your original file if you need the real values.

Does it upload my file?

No. Everything runs in your browser.

Is masking the same as anonymizing?

Not always. Combined details can still identify people, so review before sharing.

Can a hash be reversed?

Not directly, but easy-to-guess values can be matched. Use a salt.

How does Data Masking protect personal data?

It finds columns that look like emails, phones, names or card numbers, and lets you choose a method for each: fake data, partial masking, hashing, noise, rounding or removal. The same input can give the same output, so relationships between files still line up.

Can I prove a file was masked?

Yes. Save the masked file to Recent files and open Data Lineage. It lists every masked column and the method used.
