module Y2Storage
  # Mixin that enables a class to define attributes that are never exposed via
  #   #inspect, #to_s or similar methods, with the goal of preventing
  #   unintentional leaks of sensitive information in the application logs.

    # Inner class to store the value of the attribute without exposing it
    # directly
