GitGuardian researchers reached 44 active Kubernetes clusters through leaked secrets, and 30% had been exposed for more than two years. Here’s how the OWASP Kubernetes Top 10 explains these Kubernetes security risks, and why K03, Secrets Management Failures, turns one leak into a chain.
On Oct. 21, 2026, PHP fixed a vulnerability named php2shell by Calif. Pre-auth RCE under default configurations, confirmed on common CMS, webmail, e-commerce, file sharing, and database administration applications. A PHP server also stores and uses credentials, so this is a secret theft vector.
Railway's security incident may have exposed decrypted customer environment variables. Pull and scan yours with GitGuardian to know what to rotate first.
Developer laptops hold about 150 secrets each, and roughly 28% of secret incidents happen outside code repositories. Learn what credential layer security is and the six controls that protect every surface where credentials live
Researchers pulled real, leaked API keys out of three LLMs using only API output. Here is how AI agents carry secrets from developer laptops into model context, and how to stop them before the model sees them.
The first thing GitGuardian ever shipped was a free warning. Now we’re making sure it gets heard.
Six AI agent security best practices for teams running coding agents and MCP servers: limit what a compromised agent can reach and catch credential misuse.
An AI agent runs with your credentials and acts before you can stop it. Nine incidents show what that costs. Six controls limit the damage: sandbox the agent, scope its credentials, lock its configuration, log every call, scan the workspace first, and deny by default.
AI coding assistants are unpredictable by design. Learn how AI hooks add deterministic controls and how GitGuardian ggshield blocks secrets before agents can use them.
The GhostAction supply chain campaign hit 772 public GitHub repositories between Aug. 31 and Sept. 30, 2026, targeting 2,577 secrets. Between Oct 8-9 a new burst hit 30k more, and this time the workflows ran.
A secrets vault controls the credentials you manage. Detection finds the ones that escaped. Here are six reasons mature secrets management programs need both.
