DynamoEval Logs

  • A DynamoEval test execution involves logs from multiple components: the API, attack execution, and test report generation
  • This document covers the logging structure and attributes for DynamoEval-specific components

DynamoEval: Attack Logs​

Each DynamoEval test executes multiple attacks, each running in a Kubernetes pod. All attack logs include structured attributes that allow you to filter and trace logs for specific attacks.

Structured Logging Attributes​

Every log entry from DynamoEval attack execution includes the following attributes:

Attribute NameDescription
log_processed.productAlways set to "dynamoeval" to identify DynamoEval logs
log_processed.componentAlways set to "pentest-attack" for attack execution logs
log_processed.test_idThe test ID of the DynamoEval test for which the attack is being performed
log_processed.attack_idThe unique ID of the specific attack being executed
log_processed.job_idThe Kubernetes job ID associated with the attack execution
log_processed.loggerThe name of the logger, typically the module/file name (e.g., privacy_attacks.pii_leakage.models.huggingLM)

Using These Attributes​

You can use these attributes to filter logs in your logging backend:

  • Filter by attack: Use log_processed.attack_id to view all logs for a specific attack
  • Filter by test: Use log_processed.test_id to view all attack logs for a specific test
  • Filter by component: Use log_processed.component="pentest-attack" to view all attack logs
  • Filter by product: Use log_processed.product="dynamoeval" to view all DynamoEval-related logs

DynamoEval: Test Report Generation Logs​

Some DynamoEval tests include a test report generation job that executes after the test completes. These logs have a distinct structure to differentiate them from attack logs.

Structured Logging Attributes​

Every log entry from test report generation includes the following attributes:

Attribute NameDescription
log_processed.productAlways set to "dynamoeval" to identify DynamoEval logs
log_processed.componentAlways set to "test-report-generation" for report generation logs
log_processed.test_idThe test ID of the DynamoEval test for which the report is being generated
log_processed.job_idThe Kubernetes job ID associated with the report generation
log_processed.loggerThe name of the logger, typically the module/file name

Using These Attributes​

You can use these attributes to filter logs in your logging backend:

  • Filter by test: Use log_processed.test_id to view all report generation logs for a specific test
  • Filter by component: Use log_processed.component="test-report-generation" to view all report generation logs
  • Filter by product: Use log_processed.product="dynamoeval" combined with log_processed.component="test-report-generation" to view all report generation logs
