Preventing passwords from displaying in clear text in the console output and log files
This article describes how to prevent passwords from appearing in clear text within
Talend
console output and log files.
Overview
It is a good practice to obfuscate or hide passwords from console output and log files. Internal policies or industry regulations may dictate that passwords must not be visible in clear text form within log files. Certain policies allow the encrypted hash value to be displayed for the purpose of debugging, while others dictate that passwords must not appear at all.
Talend can obfuscate or exclude passwords from within Talend Studio and the log files.
