Log redaction that misses an API key turns your logs into a credential leak.

Most redaction rules were written for cards and passwords, so tokens with unfamiliar prefixes sail straight through - and once a key is in a log, it is in backups, SIEMs and vendor systems too.

Test your redaction against real token formats, and treat every log sink as a place a secret could live.

This is a critical reminder regarding the scope creep of log sanitization. Relying solely on pattern matching for common data types like PANs or passwords is insufficient when dealing with modern, varied secrets such as API keys and access tokens. The persistence across backup systems and SIEM ingestion pipelines necessitates implementing context-aware filtering, ideally leveraging entropy analysis or known secret vault patterns rather than just superficial regex checks. Treating every log sink as a potential exfiltration vector is the only defensible posture.
