Dynamic data masking system views - Amazon Redshift

Dynamic data masking system views

Superusers, users with the sys:operator role, and users with the ACCESS SYSTEM TABLE permission can access the following DDM-related system views.

  • SVV_MASKING_POLICY

    Use SVV_MASKING_POLICY to view all masking policies created on the cluster or workgroup.

  • SVV_ATTACHED_MASKING_POLICY

    Use SVV_ATTACHED_MASKING_POLICY to view all the relations and users or roles with policies attached on the currently connected database.

  • SYS_APPLIED_MASKING_POLICY_LOG

    Use SYS_APPLIED_MASKING_POLICY_LOG to trace the application of masking policies on queries that reference DDM-protected relations.

Following are some examples of the information that you can find using system views.

--Select all policies associated with specific users, as opposed to roles SELECT policy_name, schema_name, table_name, grantee FROM svv_attached_masking_policy WHERE grantee_type = 'user'; --Select all policies attached to a specific user SELECT policy_name, schema_name, table_name, grantee FROM svv_attached_masking_policy WHERE grantee = 'target_grantee_name' --Select all policies attached to a given table SELECT policy_name, schema_name, table_name, grantee FROM svv_attached_masking_policy WHERE table_name = 'target_table_name' AND schema_name = 'target_schema_name'; --Select the highest priority policy attachment for a given role SELECT samp.policy_name, samp.priority, samp.grantee, smp.policy_expression FROM svv_masking_policy AS smp JOIN svv_attached_masking_policy AS samp ON samp.policy_name = smp.policy_name WHERE samp.grantee_type = 'role' AND samp.policy_name = mask_get_policy_for_role_on_column( 'target_schema_name', 'target_table_name', 'target_column_name', 'target_role_name') ORDER BY samp.priority desc LIMIT 1; --See which policy a specific user will see on a specific column in a given relation SELECT samp.policy_name, samp.priority, samp.grantee, smp.policy_expression FROM svv_masking_policy AS smp JOIN svv_attached_masking_policy AS samp ON samp.policy_name = smp.policy_name WHERE samp.grantee_type = 'role' AND samp.policy_name = mask_get_policy_for_user_on_column( 'target_schema_name', 'target_table_name', 'target_column_name', 'target_user_name') ORDER BY samp.priority desc; --Select all policies attached to a given relation. SELECT policy_name, schema_name, relation_name, database_name FROM sys_applied_masking_policy_log WHERE relation_name = 'relation_name' AND schema_name = 'schema_name';
