Use a search-time field extraction to mask the data.

Create a transforms.conf rule on the forwarder that applies only to the specific source type.

Create a global masking rule on the forwarder.

Ask Splunk support to configure masking on the indexer.

Place the app package in the `etc/apps` directory using the file system.
