When you have logs that need to be "sanitized" (i.e., clear any identifying information like IP addresses, host names, usernames, etc.), what tools do you find most useful?



We've had this problem, and ended up having to write it ourselves. There are a lot of patterns that identify data as potentially sensitive, and being able to redact this is part of something we've created.

It's open source and written in Go -- so you can see the types of data that we've identified as needing redaction:
