PROFILE
Andrew Best
Worked on the OctopusDeploy/docs repository over a three-month period, focusing on enhancing documentation for Octopus Server and MCP. Updated security documentation to clarify the adoption of AES-256 as the default encryption for sensitive data, while detailing continued AES-128 use for data in transit and deployment targets. Led a comprehensive restructure of the MCP documentation, introducing new AI-related sections and improving navigation with redirects and file renaming. Prepared documentation for MCP’s General Availability release by removing early access labels and aligning content with product readiness. Employed Markdown, technical writing, and AI integration skills to ensure clarity, accuracy, and maintainability.

Nov 1, 2024November 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.
