With a large number of developers, it’s highly likely that your company’s secrets are publicly exposed without your knowledge. Request your audit today and take control of your GitHub security perimeter.
DIY or open-source secrets detection can seem cost-effective and customizable initially... until you start hitting the first obstacles like scalability, developer experience (DX), or deep application security expertise. Read on to find out how GitGuardian can help you rise above these!
The report reveals an unprecedented number of hard-coded secrets in new GitHub commits over the year 2022. And much more.
The GitGuardian team is still striving to provide the broadest secrets detection engine, helping you find and fix all sorts of hardcoded secrets! Learn more about the specific and generic detectors our team has released in 2022 in this post.
The figures are precise: stolen credentials remain the most common cause of a data breach. So how are there still thousands of hardcoded secrets hiding in source code, CI/CD pipelines, or Docker images, and, more importantly, how should we deal with them?
In its 2022 report, GitGuardian extends its previous edition focused on public GitHub by depicting a realistic view of the state of secrets sprawl in corporate codebases.
GitGuardian users can now extend the secrets detection engine and configure custom patterns to detect proprietary secrets and credentials.
While scanning millions of documents for secrets, should we really aim at reaching absolute zero or is the story not so simple?
From benchmark analysis, here are our key takeaways on building efficient real-time data filtering pipelines.
New series focusing on performance at GitGuardian. Learn how we built the tools to produce meaningful benchmarks and track our improvements in speed over the year.
GitGuardian now supports more than 300 secrets detectors, available in both products: GitGuardian for Public GitHub Monitoring and GitGuardian for Internal Repositories Monitoring.
Discover what generic secrets detection is really about, why it's a critical component to build a performant secrets detection engine, and how GitGuardian is tackling this problem.
In this tutorial we are going to run through how to create a pre-commit git hook using GitGuardian Shield to detect secrets before they enter your repository.
This article explains how our research team develops and refines detectors. To illustrate this article, we will take the case of MongoDB credentials.
GitGuardian has been scanning every single public commit made on GitHub for secrets since 2017, now we are releasing our findings in the most comprehensive study on secrets sprawl ever conducted.
This article will expose how our algorithms detect secrets and what we have learnt from scanning, literally, billions of commits.
Secrets including API tokens, passwords and credentials are the keys to the kingdom. Yet storing secrets inside git including GitHub & GitLab is a problem. Security experts discuss why this is & how to solve this.
This article looks at how SAP built an internal secrets scanning solution to detect API keys and other credentials hardcoded in git repos and revoke them.
Despite secrets like API keys, OAuth tokens, certificates and passwords being extremely sensitive, it is common for these to leak into git repositories through source code. This article looks at why this is true and how we can prevent it.
Credential theft is already a well-known adversary technique but the risk expands much wider when introducing secrets such as API keys. This article looks at automated secrets detection, the challenges, and potential solutions.
The first in a series of articles that will take a deep dive into secrets within source code: In this article, we will look at the concept of secret sprawl, the unwanted distribution of secrets through multiple systems, and how we can prevent it.
An in depth guide intended for CISOs, application security and other security professionals who want to protect their organizations from credentials leaked on GitHub.
Why precision and recall are such important metrics to consider when evaluating the performance of classification algorithms such as secrets detection.
