Jul 1, 2025July 2025 — IBM/universal-connectors delivered two strategic features that align with the SaaS-focused product direction and strengthen audit-processing reliability. Deprecation of On-Prem Guardium Data Security Center (GDSC) support involved removing references from READMEs in Logstash filter plugins, signaling a shift away from on-premise maintenance. Enhanced Logstash filtering for Intersystems IRIS audit processing updated filter SQL and introduced data sanitization to improve data quality and security in audit records. These efforts reduce maintenance overhead, improve compliance readiness, and reinforce a robust data-processing pipeline.
