What would be an ideal approach that a log that is being streamed has a middle layer or mechanism to mask some of the sensitive data.
I have a use case where support personnel need to track logs looking for sms delivery to a particular recipient by phone number but the log contains more than required sensitive data.
Ideally this case would require a middleware which can reside at the server end and masks the data before streaming or be embedded at the client end (browser)
any thoughts?

There are currently no plans for middleware support... I'd recommend writing a separate process that reads the raw log files with sensitive data and outputs new, sanitized log files. Then point log.io at the sanitized files.
