Re: Implementing masking either via RCAC or encryption fieldproc

We raised a number of potential production concerns re RCAC in this 2014 blog post:

http://ibmsystemsmag.com/blogs/idevelop/archive/rcac-two-steps-forward-one-back/ <http://ibmsystemsmag.com/blogs/idevelop/archive/rcac-two-steps-forward-one-back/>

Subsequently we revisited the issue later that same year based on a comment by Kent Milligan (which weirdly no longer appears on the blog):

http://ibmsystemsmag.com/blogs/idevelop/archive/who-was-that-masked-man--or-that-masked-value-/ <http://ibmsystemsmag.com/blogs/idevelop/archive/who-was-that-masked-man--or-that-masked-value-/>

That second blog referenced the article that Kent Milligan wrote on the way that IBM suggest the issues be handled. That article is here:

http://ibmsystemsmag.com/blogs/idevelop/archive/rcac-two-steps-forward-one-back/ <http://ibmsystemsmag.com/blogs/idevelop/archive/rcac-two-steps-forward-one-back/>

Don't know if you have seen those pieces. We have not revisited the topic since moving to V7.3 but I'm not aware of any changes since V7.2.

Thanks, John, but I have studied this article quite a bit already...

this is conditional masking on system initiated tasks... I'm looking at
strategies to handle masking based on user profile.

At a glance . . . maybe this'll help.

Has anyone any experience implementing masking in a db2 rpg/sql shop?
