Embodiments of the invention provide systems and methods for controlling presentation of sensitive information in a user interface of an application. More specifically, embodiments of the present invention provide for masking the sensitive information when being entered by the user. However, if the user wants to verify the entry or display the sensitive information in readable text, the information can be displayed or unmasked upon request. For example, in response to the user clicking a button or other control of the user interface associated with the sensitive information or by another mouse or keyboard event, the requested sensitive information can be unmasked and displayed in the clear, for example as a tool tip or in the originally presented element of the user interface. The user can then close the tooltip or mask the information, e.g., after verification of what he/she typed.
