Secrets detection and code security
GitGuardian is a code-security platform specializing in secrets detection - finding hardcoded API keys, passwords, tokens, and other credentials leaked in source code, commits, and other developer sources - to prevent breaches from exposed secrets. It is widely used by development and security teams to secure the software development lifecycle.
The platform scans repositories in real time across GitHub, GitLab, and Bitbucket, detects 450-plus types of secrets, and extends to non-human identity (NHI) governance, CI/CD and pipeline scanning, and AI-powered remediation. By catching leaked credentials early - a common and dangerous vulnerability - GitGuardian helps teams remediate before attackers exploit them.
GitGuardian offers a free plan for individual developers and small teams (under 25 developers) with core secrets detection, a Business tier at around 220 dollars per user per year adding custom rules, CI/CD scanning, SIEM integrations, and SSO, and an Enterprise tier (contact sales) with NHI governance, AI remediation, self-hosted deployment, and long audit retention. Aimed at development and security teams, it competes with Snyk, Semgrep, SonarQube, Wiz, and GitLab.
