Implement Data Masking in Azure

In this lab, you will assume the role of a database owner who has the ability to view the tables within a database. This database owner needs to grant access to an individual who does not have access. In this hands-on lab, we will have the database owner go through what is required to have a guest account assigned masking policies such that they would not have the ability to view the data.
