As an administrator, you use the Server Control program to manage the Dynamic Data Masking Server and start and stop the Dynamic Data Masking services. You use the Management Console to configure target databases, define listener ports, manage target databases, maintain system logs, and define rules. The administrative tasks that you perform help to ensure that Dynamic Data Masking operates effectively and efficiently.
To prevent loss of data, such as connection rules, security rule sets, and database configurations, perform regular backups of the entire Dynamic Data Masking directory to a location on your network or an external storage location
