Redaction Rule Packs for Team-Scale Sanitization
Share reusable redaction settings so support teams sanitize logs and HAR files consistently across workflows.
Updated: 2026-02-24
Problem
Different teams sanitize data differently, which creates quality gaps and review delays.
Without shared defaults, one ticket may be over-redacted while another still leaks sensitive values.
Solution
Rule packs let teams preload approved header/key lists and body-size controls for consistent sanitization.
Shared presets reduce onboarding time and make support quality easier to audit.
What we redact
| Category | Examples | Replacement |
|---|---|---|
| Authorization headers | AuthorizationProxy-Authorization |
[REDACTED:AUTH] / Bearer [REDACTED:BEARER] / Basic [REDACTED:BASIC] |
| API key headers | x-api-keyx-rapidapi-keyx-amz-security-token |
[REDACTED:API_KEY] |
| Token-like query params | tokenaccess_tokenclient_secretsignature |
[REDACTED:QP] / [REDACTED:PARAM] |
| Custom headers/keys | cf-access-jwt-assertionclient_secret |
[REDACTED:CUSTOM_HEADER] / [REDACTED:CUSTOM_KEY] |
Examples
- cf-access-jwt-assertion: [REDACTED:CUSTOM_HEADER]
- client_secret: [REDACTED:CUSTOM_KEY]
- signature=[REDACTED:QP]
Use cases
- Roll out vendor-specific masking defaults to global support teams.
- Align incident handoff quality between engineering and support.
- Maintain safer escalation workflows in regulated environments.
- Keep reusable redaction standards in one shareable format.
FAQ
Do rule packs change my raw logs?
Rule packs only preload redaction rules. Sanitization still runs when you process content in a tool.
Can I use rule packs with HAR sanitizer?
Yes. Rule packs are designed to open HAR sanitizer with preconfigured settings.
Rule packs are useful when you need repeatable sanitization standards rather than one-off manual cleanup.
