Description

section.description

A service needs observability, but logs can become a second data breach. Participants audit sample logs, traces, request bodies, error reports, and support exports to find tokens, emails, addresses, session IDs, and payment fragments that should never be stored.

Teams will build redaction rules, safe logging helpers, sampling decisions, retention limits, and incident steps for when sensitive data has already entered telemetry. The result is a debugging system people can trust.
