Description

Identifies where sensitive information may potentially be present in DataStage Job and Sequence Annotations

Description

This rule looks for the the following signatures in all annotations:

  1. The name of a DataStage hostname, as well as instances

2. Instances of the words hostname, password, organisation (UK-EN spelling) or organization (US-EN spelling).

Note that it is impossible to use regular expressions to detect a password, hostname, or organisation, but assuming one of these words is found the likelihood of the actual sensitive information being present is high.
