SENSITIVEDATA node

The SENSITIVEDATA node of the Hansen8 configuration defines how Infor Public Sector stores credit card and social security numbers in the database.

Note:  To comply with PCI security standards, we recommend that you do not store sensitive data in your database. The SENSITIVEDATA node was added in the 8.3.0 (201404) release of Infor Public Sector, so you may have existing credit card numbers in your database if you're upgrading from an older release. Because the default is not to store credit card numbers, the system will delete all credit card numbers in your database when you upgrade your system.

The SENSITIVEDATA node can have these attributes:
