GitGuardian

Real-time secrets detection.

Visit www.gitguardian.com
01

What it does

A real-time secrets detection platform that scans code repositories, CI/CD pipelines, and collaboration tools for exposed credentials. Detects API keys, tokens, certificates, and other secrets before they become security incidents.

02

Security relevance

AI deployments multiply the secrets attack surface — API keys for LLM providers, vector database credentials, model registry tokens, and service account keys all need protection. GitGuardian catches these before they're committed to repositories or shared in CI/CD logs.

03

When to use it

Deploy across all repositories that contain AI application code. SaaS with CI/CD integration requiring repo connections, policy configuration, and alert tuning. Critical infrastructure for any development team working with AI APIs and services.

04

OWASP coverage

Risks addressed — mapped to both OWASP Top 10 standards. 1 in LLM, 1 in Agentic.
