My Account

To view your account information, choose the My Account item from the main menu.

'My Account' has the following sections:

• License information
• Account information
• Git SSH key information
• Git Directory information

License information

Your license information is displayed in the first panel of My Account, and contains information about your license tier and the restrictions associated with that license. If there are any issues, such as an expired license or breach of license restrictions, they will also be shown here.

On this screen, if you are running DataMasque on an AWS EC2 instance (including EKS), or on AWS Elastic Container Service (ECS), you can also select to check out a Contract License from your AWS account instead of using the license from the license file.

For Dynamic licenses, you can control automatic license checkout behavior using the Enable license checkout toggle:

• When enabled (default), DataMasque automatically checks out and renews licenses from AWS License Manager.
• When disabled, all active licenses are checked in and automatic checkout stops. Masking runs cannot be executed until checkout is re-enabled.

For more information about licensing, refer to the Licensing guide.

Account Information

Your user account information is displayed in the second panel of 'My Account'. It shows your user account details and an API key you can use to automate tasks using the DataMasque REST API (see Best Practices).

Revoking Your API Key

In case your API key is compromised, it can be revoked (and a new one provisioned) by clicking the    button. Before revoking, ensure that the key is no longer required by any integrations you have developed using the DataMasque REST API.

Updating Account Information

Basic user account information such as email address and password can be updated by clicking the    button. A form will be displayed allowing you to update this information. Using this form, you can also opt in or opt-out of receiving email updates when new unmasked sensitive data is found during sensitive data discovery.

For users who authenticate with single sign-on, certain account details such as email address and password cannot be updated from DataMasque.

Git SSH key information

The Git SSH Key panel of My Account displays your uploaded SSH private key details. This key is used to authenticate the connection to the remote Git repository configured on the Settings page.

It is recommended to upload your SSH private key before configuring the repository URL on the Settings page, so that DataMasque can validate the connection when you save.

Note: Git SSH key management is only available for Admin users and Mask Builder users. Each user can only store one SSH key.

Uploading a Git SSH key

An SSH private key file (often named id_rsa) can be uploaded by clicking the    button, or by clicking the    button if you have already uploaded a key.

A new panel will be displayed. Enter a name for the key or leave it blank to use the file name. Click the Choose File button and select the SSH private key file from your computer. Finally, click the upload button to finish uploading your key.

Important: Upload your private key (e.g. id_rsa), not the public key (e.g. id_rsa.pub). The corresponding public key must be added to your Git provider. See Git provider setup for provider-specific instructions.

You may wish to create a dedicated SSH key pair for DataMasque rather than reusing a personal key.

Deleting a Git SSH key

Your Git SSH key can be deleted by clicking the Delete Key button from Git SSH Key Information panel.

Git Directory information

If Git Integration is enabled on your DataMasque instance, you can specify the Git directory to store rulesets on an individual user basis. Once defined, the specific user's Git directory will take precedence over the global directory set up by an Admin user in the Settings page.

When you are setting up the Git directory:

• Choose Global Directory if you want to use the directory specified globally.
• If you have a specific directory for the current user, select Custom Directory and provide the path.
  • If you intend to use the repository root, simply leave the text field blank.

Note: Only Admin and Mask Builder users have access to this Git directory feature.
