This pull request introduces a major new feature: Security-Focused Output Masking, aimed at enhancing sensitive data protection across deployment outputs, reports, and logs. It also includes updates to documentation and examples to showcase this feature, along with minor styling and functionality improvements.

Security Features

  • Comprehensive Output Masking: Added output_masking configuration in pipeline_settings to automatically mask sensitive data such as AWS account IDs, API endpoints, database URLs, and more. Includes seven built-in masking categories, support for custom regex patterns, and per-pipeline configurability. [1] [2] [3] [4]
  • Documentation Updates: Expanded documentation with detailed guides, examples, and FAQs for the new masking feature, including YAML configurations and masking categories. [1] [2] [3]

Documentation Enhancements

  • Examples Update: Revised examples/README.md to include security-focused output masking in pipeline demonstrations, along with deployment instructions and masking configurations.
  • New Documentation Section: Added a dedicated "Security-Focused Output Masking" section in the docs, linking it from relevant pages. [1] [2] [3]

Styling and Functionality Improvements

  • Hero Section Styling: Updated CSS for the hero section to use a darker background color and a "cover" background size for better visual appeal.
  • Parallax Effect Adjustment: Modified JavaScript to adjust parallax speed based on screen size for a more responsive user experience.
