Vercel Now Redacts Sensitive Environment Variables in Build Logs
Vercel automatically redacts sensitive environment variable values of 32+ characters in deployment build logs, replacing them with [REDACTED]. The build logs view indicates when redaction occurred, and the Activity Log records the key, project, and deployment without exposing the value. Selected system environment variables for deployment security are also redacted.

A practical security improvement that reduces accidental exposure of secrets in logs, though teams must still ensure variables are marked sensitive and meet the length threshold.
