Trace spans are captured in the runtime after decrypting the request. This means that any sensitive data is available in plain text.

Additionally, engineers can add arbitrary information to trace spans, which could expose sensitive information. Collecting sensitive information in trace spans or logging events could expose an organization to a number of risks.

Lumigo is expanding its troubleshooting and observability platform with cutting-edge AI-powered tooling, now available in beta, which will provide developers and DevOps teams with the fastest and most cost-efficient way to debug and observe complex microservices.
