Context

Anonymization Feature v1.0

Introduction

Releasing of the Anonymization Feature v1.0. This feature is designed to enhance the privacy and security of our users by filtering out sensitive information in generated HTTP requests.

Key Features

• JSON Anonymization
• Form Data Anonymization

How It Works

The Anonymization Feature v1.0 utilizes advanced regular expressions to detect sensitive information in HTTP requests. When enabled using setAnonymization(), it processes the request body and replaces the detected sensitive information with anonymized placeholders.

Example

Original Request Body:

{
  "email": "[email protected]",
  "name": "Yujun Liu",
  "address": "22 Bond str"
}

Anonymized Request Body:

{
  "email": "************@email.com",
  "name": "*Anonymized* Name",
  "address": "*Anonymized* Address"
}

How to Enable

To enable the Anonymization Feature, simply call the anonymizeMode(true) function in your configuration. This will ensure that all HTTP requests are processed to filter out sensitive information before being sent.

Code Example

var trafficSimulator = require('flexbench');

trafficSimulator.anonymizeMode(true);
