Class SubstringFormatEntry

The Substring masking format extracts a portion of the original column value and uses it to replace the original value. It internally uses the Oracle SUBSTR function. It takes the start position and length as input, extracts substring from the original value using SUBSTR, and uses the substring to replace the original value. To learn more, check Substring in the Data Safe documentation.
