Yes, we can do it at application level and database level as well.
for example mobile no. is 9878415877, digits can by shuffle(8987148577) or can 
replace with other letter/number(first 6 digits replace with X-- xxxxxx5877) by 
using data masking. We can use any one data masking technique at DB level to 
protect our sensitive data from external exposure.
I have sensitive data in existing mysql db. I need to do data masking at DB 
level.
If any tools available for the same please respond.

I don't think there's a generic tool for it.
It depends on your data, format etc.
ie: it's not the same a credit card record than an email or a phone number
one.

It depends on your data, so you might want to do it from an application
level.

Good luck
Manuel.
