  One data masking technique that can be used to protect sensitive information in blockchain transactions is encryption. Encryption involves converting the data into an unreadable format using an encryption algorithm. This ensures that even if the data is intercepted, it cannot be understood without the decryption key. Another technique is tokenization, where sensitive data is replaced with a token that has no meaningful value. This token can be used in transactions, while the actual sensitive data is stored securely. Additionally, anonymization can be used to protect sensitive information by removing personally identifiable information from the data. This ensures that the data cannot be linked back to an individual.

  Data masking techniques play a crucial role in protecting sensitive information in blockchain transactions. One technique is data obfuscation, which involves modifying the data in a way that it becomes difficult to interpret. This can include techniques like shuffling the order of characters or replacing certain characters with random symbols. Another technique is data redaction, where specific parts of the data are removed or replaced with generic placeholders. This ensures that sensitive information is not exposed in the blockchain. By implementing these techniques, blockchain transactions can maintain the privacy and security of sensitive information.
