Out-of-the-Box Intelligence

22 Forensic Presets

Twenty-two pre-configured rules cover the most common sensitive patterns: AWS keys and session tokens, Stripe secrets, JWTs, generic secret assignments (quoted/unquoted), private keys, credentials in URLs, Kubernetes-injected secrets, IPv4/IPv6, MAC addresses, file paths, UUIDs, plus sensitive data like emails, credit cards, and CVV/CVC. Rules are categorized (Cloud & Auth, Network, Sensitive Data, System) and tagged by severity—Critical, High, and Medium—so you can tune what gets redacted without touching regex.

The Clipboard Firewall (Ghost Mode)

Background Defense

Ghost Mode intercepts clipboard data in real time. When you copy, content is redacted before it ever reaches the paste buffer—credentials, keys, and PII never linger in plain text.

Timed Clipboard Wipe
Automatically clears sensitive clipboard text after a short delay.
30s
Clipboard contains
password=example-password
Wipe countdown00:30 → 00:00
After the timer, the clipboard is cleared so secrets don’t linger in memory.

Timed Clipboard Wipe

Automatic Clipboard Hygiene

Enable Timed Clipboard Wipe to automatically clear the clipboard after 30 seconds. It’s a simple safety net that reduces “clipboard linger” risk when you’re moving fast between terminals, dashboards, and tickets.

Satellite Mode & Multi-Source Parsing

Unified Workspace

Satellite Mode monitors multiple clipboard sources and feeds them through a single pipeline. The Smart Trim engine strips log noise and keeps only high-signal lines—errors, critical events, and context—so you get one clean, redacted view across all sources without manual filtering.

AI-Ready Workflows

Secure AI Troubleshooting

The AI Prompt setting pre-formats redacted logs for LLM ingestion. Choose a template (e.g. "Summarize these logs and highlight critical events") and paste: secrets are stripped while the signal for debugging is preserved, so you can safely send sanitized output to AI tools.

Debug Mode & Audit Trail

Transparent Redaction

Debug Mode shows exactly which regex rule was applied to every span of text. See replacements inline—e.g. [IPv4], [JWT], [API Key]—so you can verify behavior and tune rules with full visibility into the audit trail.

Bulk Custom Rules

Enterprise Flexibility

Build and import proprietary regex patterns for organization-specific log formats. Add rules one-by-one or in bulk, assign category and severity, and keep full control over replacements—so internal standards and compliance requirements stay in your hands.
