Summary

Implement functionality to sanitize and clean sensitive data from application logs to prevent accidental exposure of credentials, tokens, and other sensitive information.

Description

The application should automatically detect and redact sensitive information from logs before they are written. This includes but is not limited to:

  • API keys and tokens
  • Passwords and credentials
  • Personal identifiable information (PII)
  • Database connection strings
  • Any data marked as sensitive

Proposed Solution

  • Implement a log sanitizer that processes log messages before output
  • Define patterns for common sensitive data types
  • Allow configuration of additional sensitive patterns
  • Ensure redacted data is replaced with safe placeholder text (e.g., [REDACTED])

Benefits

  • Improved security posture
  • Compliance with data protection regulations
  • Reduced risk of credential leaks in logs
