How to encrypt or create a security layer for data in a custom field

[rangel.machado]

I'm planning to create a new custom field in Jira for the request registration screen, where users will input their CPFs as part of the registration process. However, I'm concerned about the security of sensitive data and would like to implement a layer of encryption to protect this information.

I would like to know what the best practices and possible approaches are for implementing this encryption effectively. I am particularly interested in understanding how I can integrate this encryption with existing Jira functionalities, ensuring that CPF data is stored securely and can still be accessed and processed when needed, while maintaining compliance with privacy and data protection regulations.
