Obfuscation

Obfuscation is a process that intentionally makes information unclear or confusing. In the context of PERF, it allows you to choose specific fields during Data Source configuration that may contain personal or sensitive data. These selected fields are then stored in the PERF database with obfuscated values, ensuring privacy. This functionality applies to both predefined fields and custom fields, providing an added layer of security for your metrics.

The following catalogue metrics are affected by the obfuscation:

• Velocity: Committed vs. Completed

• Commitment Rate

• Sprint Completion Snapshot

• Release Completion Snapshot

• Releases by month

• Scrum Cycle Time

• Bug Growth by Sprints

• Capacity

• Estimation

• Workload

• Backlog Health

• Sprint Plan Change

• Sprint Scope Creep

• Sprint Scope Stability

• Requirements Rewritten After Became Ready

• Improper Dependencies by Sprints
