Security + Cost Control for Logging

Stop sensitive data from
leaking into your logs.

Enforce logging rules at build-time and runtime. Prevent PII/PHI exposure, reduce ingestion costs, and standardize logs before they leave your app.

Runtime enforcement

Before: without Cerbi

// Raw log output
User logged in
SSN: 123-45-6789
Email: jane@example.com
Token: eyJhbGci...

After: with Cerbi

// Governed log output
User logged in
SSN: ***REDACTED***
Email: ***REDACTED***
GovernanceViolation: SensitiveField

// Sensitive data never leaves your application.

Works with your existing logging stack. No replacement required.

How Cerbi Works

Governance at the source, scoring when you need it.

Governance enforcement runs inside your application. Scoring and reporting are optional and asynchronous.

01

Runs inside the application

Cerbi analyses logs before they leave your process. No network calls, no log dropping.

02

Evaluates governance rules

Validates schema, field presence, data types, and forbidden field patterns.

03

Applies redaction and encryption

Strips PII/PHI before logs reach any destination.

04

Emits governance metadata

Attaches governance signals for optional async processing.

05

No network overhead

All processing happens locally. Sub-millisecond impact.

Runtime Plugins

Governance plugins for every logging framework

All plugins share the same governance contract and scoring semantics, providing consistent compliance insights across heterogeneous stacks.

Looking for Beta Testers

Cerbi is actively working with early adopters to validate governance enforcement across multiple runtimes. If you're running Python, Node.js, Java, or Go services and want consistent logging governance, we'd love your feedback.

  • Early access to runtime governance plugins
  • Direct feedback loop with Cerbi engineers
  • Influence final APIs and defaults
  • No lock-in: runtime plugins remain free

Role-Based Access Control

Separate governance policy creation, deployment, and compliance review across engineering, operations, and security teams.

Cerbi
Shield

Cerbi uses role-based access control to separate governance policy creation, deployment, and compliance review. This ensures logging governance changes follow controlled workflows across engineering, operations, and security teams.

What's Next for Cerbi

Cerbi is evolving beyond telemetry governance into a platform that continuously improves telemetry quality and operational safety.

Step 1
Available Today

Governance Enforcement

Enforce structured logging rules, protect sensitive fields, and evaluate telemetry quality before logs reach observability platforms.

Step 2
Available - CLI + VS Marketplace

Cerbi Scanner

Cerbi Scanner is available as a CLI tool and Visual Studio Marketplace extension. Scan any repository for unsafe log calls, missing fields, and services without governance profiles - no account required.

Step 3
Planned

Telemetry Pattern Intelligence

Cerbi will identify common telemetry patterns and schema inconsistencies across systems, helping organizations adopt stronger logging practices and reusable governance templates.

Roadmap items represent current development intent and may change.
