Class Credentials

java.lang.Object
org.acemq.amqp.security.Credentials
public final class Credentials extends Object
A username and a secret.

The secret never appears in toString(), and there is no getter that reads like one. Credentials reach logs, health endpoints, exception messages and crash dumps by way of some object's toString, and that is how they end up in a log aggregator that half the company can search.
