Abstract
The static data masking system may perform one or more operations including unbinding tables in a database, evaluating masking operations on the tables to determine that at least one masking operation on a particular column of a candidate table is a complex masking operation that cannot be completed using a query, adding a temporary key column with unique values to the candidate table, generating a temporary table including the temporary key column and an empty masked column, generating masked values for the particular column at a client, and populating the masked values for the particular column in the empty masked column of the temporary table.
