PROFILE

Andrew Best

Andrew Best focused on enhancing the OctopusDeploy/docs repository by delivering two major documentation features over two months. He updated security documentation to clarify the adoption of AES-256 as the default encryption for sensitive data in newer Octopus Server versions, while explicitly documenting continued AES-128 use for data in transit and on deployment targets. In a separate effort, Andrew overhauled the Octopus MCP documentation, restructuring AI-related content, adding new top-level pages, and introducing a Security section detailing API key and HTTPS communication. His work emphasized Markdown proficiency and documentation best practices, resulting in clearer, more maintainable, and policy-aligned technical content.

November 2024: Completed a documentation update aligning Octopus Server encryption policy with AES-256 as the default for sensitive data in newer server versions, while clearly stating AES-128 remains in use for data in transit and on deployment targets. The change reduces admin confusion, improves security posture, and supports compliance alignment across the docs. The update is traceable to the commit fc666199b60bcf83a43138c2d611e395e27dde13 as part of (#2548). No major defects fixed in this period; effort focused on accuracy, clarity, and maintainability of security-related documentation.
