Short direct answer and fix is?
o From SDM 7.64 onwards, the Masking Server requires Voltage SecureData SimpleAPI 6.0.0 or above. If you have upgraded SDM prior to 7.64 then you might have installed SimpleAPI 5.x, and in this case, you need to make sure that you upgrade Voltage SecureData SimpleAPI to version 6.0.0 or above.
How to do it:
1. Uninstall before versions of SimpleAPI
2. Install VoltageData SimpleAPI 6 or up
