GitGuardian finds leaked secrets in source code and beyond, using machine learning to detect API keys, credentials, and tokens across repositories.

Overview

A single committed API key can compromise an entire environment. GitGuardian monitors source code — public and private — with detectors trained to recognize thousands of secret types across providers, frameworks, and formats. It scans commit history in real time, alerts owners instantly, and supports remediation workflows that include validity checks and incident management. Coverage extends to collaboration tools and artifacts where credentials also leak, giving security teams one place to manage the problem.

Security teams value the detection breadth: credential formats change constantly, and the ML detectors keep up across providers and frameworks. Fast alerts matter most — the window between commit and exploitation can be minutes — and remediation workflows keep developers moving.

Key Features

  • ML-based detectors covering thousands of secret types
  • Real-time monitoring of repositories and commit history
  • Validity checks and incident response workflows
  • Monitoring beyond code, including collaboration tools
  • Developer-friendly alerts that avoid alert fatigue
  • Detection across thousands of secret types
  • Real-time alerts on repository commits
  • Validity checks and incident workflows

Security teams value detection breadth: credential formats change constantly, and the ML detectors keep pace across providers and frameworks. Speed matters most — the window between commit and exploitation can be minutes — and remediation workflows keep developers moving instead of stalled.

Dashboard metrics on leak response times help security leaders demonstrate improvement, and developer education materials reduce repeat incidents. Coverage of non-code surfaces closes the gaps attackers actually exploit once repositories are watched closely.

Pricing

Individual developers can monitor public exposure for free; paid plans cover private repositories, teams, and enterprise monitoring needs.

Who Is It For

Security and platform teams responsible for preventing credential leaks across large code estates. It fits organizations treating credential leaks as a first-order risk.
