OpenTelemetry

Emit security telemetry your infra stack can read.

OpenTelemetry

Dhal can emit Dhal-specific telemetry hooks for request security decisions.

npm install @opentelemetry/api @rokadhq/dhal

import { createOtelTelemetry } from "@rokadhq/dhal/telemetry/otel";

Enable in config:

{
  "observability": {
    "otel": {
      "enabled": true,
      "serviceName": "api"
    }
  }
}

Suggested attributes

Dhal events should preserve security value while respecting redaction policy:

• dhal.action
• dhal.rule_id
• dhal.severity
• dhal.route
• dhal.risk_score
• dhal.rate_limit.remaining

Redaction

Use privacy-first redaction before forwarding events to shared systems.

{
  "observability": {
    "redaction": {
      "enabled": true,
      "ip": "mask",
      "identity": "hash",
      "userAgent": "full"
    }
  }
}
