How do we analyze your secrets without seeing them?

1 Collect

Our CLI tool called ggscout, safely collects secrets and their metadata from your secrets managers.

2 Hash

Converts the collected information into a secure, encrypted format within your environment.

3 send

Sends the protected secrets and metadata to GitGuardian platform for analysis.

You maintain control over the entire process and can verify the security measures we employ.

You can't control what you can't see.  Discover your secrets before it's too late.

Get the detailed context and full scope around each secret

Assess breach impact by understanding access granted by NHI secrets.
Identify owners and map relationships between NHIs, applications, and resources to prioritize incident response.
Categorize secrets by sensitivity and criticality, allowing for targeted security.

Maintain a real-time inventory of all secrets

Centralize your secrets inventory, for easier oversight and reduce risks associated with fragmented management.
Eliminate blind spots by tracking consumers, latest rotation dates, and permission levels.
See every secret used by NHIs (even those outside vaults) across all systems.

Detect and revoke compromised secrets

Proactively detect leaked secrets in all environments, with continuous monitoring.
Safely revoke compromised secrets without production disruption.

Manage secrets continuously across their entire life cycle

Proactively detect stale, over-privileged, and unused secrets, for prioritized remediation.
Semi-automate rotation of NHI secrets and take back control with automated lifecycle management.
Establish policies for purging unnecessary secrets and minimize the overall attack surface.

Assess secrets security posture and improve hygiene

Identify NHI bad practices and policy breaches, assessing secrets security posture.
Get policy break insights and help developers and security teams collaborate with custom remediation guidance
Enforce consistent policies across all NHIs and secrets managers, ensuring compliance.

We go where the secrets are

All supported integrations

Here's how we're delivering value for customers

GitGuardian has absolutely supported our shift-left strategy. We want all of our security tools to be at the source code level and preferably running immediately upon commit. GitGuardian supports that. We get a lot of information on every secret that gets committed, so we know the full history of a secret.
