* Package name : soscleaner Version : v0.4.3 Upstream Author : jduncan <jdun...@redhat.com> * URL : https://github.com/jduncan-rva/soscleaner * License : GPL-2+ Programming Lang: Python Description : Python application to clean sensitive and un-wanted data from an existing sosreport Soscleaner is an open-source tool to take an sosreport, or any arbitrary dataset, and sanely obfuscate potentially sensitive information so it can be shared with outside parties for support. An unaltered copy of the data is maintained by the user so data can be mapped and suggestions supplied by a support team can still be actionable, even without the sensitive information. https://soscleaner.readthedocs.io/ * Why is this pacakge useful/relevant ? This tool allow users to sanitise a sosreport before sharing it with outside parties for support by obfuscating every occurences of a hostname, ip, mac address and user. This is relevant for users who doesn't want to share such sensible information and are concern about confidentiality. * Is it a dependency for another package ? The goal is to have soscleaner sanitizing existing sosreport collection, so soscleaner will depend on sosreport which is already found in the archive. * Do you use it ? Yes, I've been testing it and used it, and I know that others will be interested to use it also. * If there are other packages providing similar function No, this package is very specific to sosreport, maybe other tool can do something similar but most likely not as good as soscleaner does. Its main focus is sanitizing sosreport. It's also made by the same upstream group. * How do you plan to maintain it ? I'm planning to maintain and/or co-maintain it. I'm already an uploader for sosreport, and planning to maintain sosreport as well to make the release of both package smooth. * Do you need a sponsor ? Yes, until I get my DM permissions.
