Matt Burgess commented on NIFI-4492: ------------------------------------ Just thinking that this capability might alternatively be implemented as a AnonymizeRecordSetWriter, which can be configured to use another RecordSetWriter for the actual output. This would allow you to just use ConvertRecord instead of a new processor. I'm good with whatever approach makes the most sense. > Add a AnonymizeRecord processor > ------------------------------- > > Key: NIFI-4492 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-4492 > Project: Apache NiFi > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: Extensions > Reporter: Matt Burgess > > It may be desired or necessary to anonymize the data in flow files before > sending them to an external system. An example of such data is Personally > Identifiable Information (PII), and an example of such a system is a > HIPAA-regulated system where certain information cannot be present in a > certain form. > It would be nice to have a record-aware processor that could anonymize > various fields in a record. One possible implementation could leverage > [ARX|http://arx.deidentifier.org/], an Apache-licensed data anonymization > library. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.14#64029)
