Security-First Design
Built with security and privacy compliance in mind, featuring automatic data redaction and capability-based access control.
Sensitive Data Redaction
Automatically redacts passwords, API keys, tokens, and private keys before storage. All sensitive fields replaced with [REDACTED].
Capability-Based Access
Only users with `manage_options` can view logs. User emails only visible to users with `list_users` capability for GDPR compliance.
GDPR Compliant
Privacy-first design with anonymous data collection, user email protection, and compliance with GDPR, CCPA, and other regulations.
API Security
Nonce verification for all requests, SQL injection protection, whitelist validation, and comprehensive input sanitization.
How Security Works
The Activity Logger implements multiple layers of security to protect sensitive data and ensure compliance with privacy regulations.
- Sensitive fields automatically detected and redacted before storage
- Capability checks on every API endpoint prevent unauthorized access
- User emails only visible to administrators with proper capabilities
- All inputs sanitized and validated to prevent injection attacks
- IP addresses support proxy headers with proper validation
