Redact IPs, hostnames, MACs, emails and credentials from text files
redact scans text files (logs, configuration files, support bundles) and replaces sensitive data with placeholder tags before you share them publicly - for example when opening a bug report, posting to a forum, or attaching output to a support ticket.
Detected and redacted by default:
- IPv4 and IPv6 addresses (all common notations, including compressed and loopback forms)
- MAC addresses
- Email addresses
- Hostnames / FQDNs (generic TLD/suffix detection, e.g. .com, .net, .internal, .local, .corp, .lan, .intranet, .io, .dev, .cloud, ...)
- Credentials: AWS access keys, GitHub/Slack tokens, JWTs, Bearer tokens, PEM private key blocks, and password/api_key/secret/token assignments in config files
You can also pass one or more --domain flags to redact client-specific domains that aren't covered by the generic hostname detection (useful when working across multiple client engagements with different internal domains).
The original file is never modified - a new file with a .redacted suffix is written next to it (or output goes to stdout with --stdout).
Usage: redact file.log redact *.log config.yaml redact file.log --domain client.example --domain internal.client.net redact file.log --stdout
