Receive notification of security flaws in legacy projects
What do you like best about the product?
GitGuardian reviews all repositories available on github, separating them into private and public, when you deprive something that has a security flaw, you receive several alerts about this flaw, the interface is very friendly, the flaw is shown in the code
What do you dislike about the product?
There are a lot of options for those starting out, segmenting them into sections depending on the level of experience, such as "advanced information" would help.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Presents security flaws effectively and easily identifies where and what is wrong
I wouldn't be confident to commit any project unless I'm sure it has been scanned by GitGuardian
What do you like best about the product?
The confidence it gives me that my sensitive information will not be accidently made public.
What do you dislike about the product?
None that I've found yet. So far I'm very pleased with all the features I use.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Preventing accidental disclosure of sensitive information such as credentials and licence keys.
Amazing tool to generate pull request analysis preventing unintentionally sharing secrets
What do you like best about the product?
I use GitGuardian on my open-source projects and this is an amazing tool that can prevent me or anybody else from sharing secrets (most of the time, unintentionally). It integrates with the pipeline and the workflow nicely, and adds comments to the pull request if finds any problems.
What do you dislike about the product?
I haven't experienced anything negative from this tool yet. Since I use the free tier, it provides me with everything that I expected. I only have good thoughts about this tool!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It prevents me from sharing unintentionally secrets when I push code to my repositories. With this tool, also running in my local machine, I can even prevent to push the secrets to the coding hosting provider.
The watchdog
What do you like best about the product?
The fact that it didn't let me deploy to production because I was about to share my ChatGPT api credentials.
What do you dislike about the product?
This is just a suggestion: Maybe they could prevent the weaknesses in the dev environment (using a cli or script) so issues won't get to the repository at the first place.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
In my busy day to day coding tasks, sometimes I overlook the security measures. It is good to have a piece of tech watch over them and prevent disasters e before they happen.
Literally a guadian angel
What do you like best about the product?
The ability to detect leaked keys, secrets etc. is massive for me. GitGuardian can detect leaked keys and secrets even when you have commits overwriting the leaked secret but don't remove them from the git history. This can be a huge security help that protects you from malicious actors, constantly crawling the web for these kinds of information.
What do you dislike about the product?
Overall, the software is really good at what it does (finding secrets) and I have no reservations about the tech. that are a bother for me;
1. I hate email notifications because they clog up my inbox and get in the way of important messages - although, you could argue that a critical security leak is an important issue. I would prefer temporary notifications like push notifications on mobile etc.
2. I live in Nigeria so the pricing is a bit on the high side. Maybe a bit of location-based discount would do the trick? I understand this might be difficult since the majority of the tech cost on their end is not location-dependent.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
GitGuardian has served as a reliable security partner in the sense that it protects us from small human errors that could be costly, especially for a code base that has numerous contributors of varying skill level, experience and temperament.
A very useful service
What do you like best about the product?
Advises me when I accidantally include sensitive information (usually an unpaid API key) in code pushed to GitHub.
What do you dislike about the product?
I haven't noticed any disadvantages to GitGuardian.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have only used GitGuardian to warn me of API keys included in code.
Attentive secret keeper.
What do you like best about the product?
E-mail notifications. Careful code reviews.
What do you dislike about the product?
Of similar items, only some picked up. But, the code owner is responsible; if one is pointed out, they should know the similar items.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
API keys and the like hard-wire in experimental code. These tend to remain there.
Developed and test using GitGuardian
What do you like best about the product?
CI/CD This is a beautiful that helps me to develop and test and good security for my repository in the git hub that help to get the security errors and fix them.
What do you dislike about the product?
the GitGuardian have a lot of services and that are helpful for all developer but I know about it in an accident that shude be depressed should be all developers hear about it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Secure Code Review ,In my code i have a lot of code secure errors that i don't know.
I am surprised
What do you like best about the product?
It s appreciated for its automated and proactive approach to identifying sensitive information in code repositories, enabling early detection and prevention of data leaks. Its customizable policies, seamless integration with development workflows, and ability to reduce manual security checks save time and resources for developers while enhancing overall security. By utilizing machine learning, GitGuardian continually improves its detection capabilities, making it a valuable tool in maintaining compliance, safeguarding against breaches, and promoting secure coding practices.
What do you dislike about the product?
I have not encountered any major drawbacks or issues with GitGuardian; its functionalities seem well-rounded.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It addresses the problem of inadvertent exposure of sensitive information in code repositories, which can lead to data leaks, security breaches, and compliance violations. By automatically scanning code for sensitive data like API keys, passwords, and tokens, GitGuardian prevents these vulnerabilities from being introduced into the codebase and alerts developers to potential risks. This benefits developers and organizations by saving time and resources that would otherwise be spent on manual security checks. It enhances overall security posture by proactively identifying vulnerabilities, mitigating the risk of data breaches, and ensuring compliance with data protection regulations.
This feature should be integrated into GitHub.
What do you like best about the product?
Being new to software, keeping secret keys and other vulnerable information safe is not something I have fully learned yet. GitGaurdian has been very helpful in informing me when I accidentally expose these.
What do you dislike about the product?
I have not ran into an issue with GitGuardian yet. I think it has done its job perfectly well.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As stated before I have been using it to remind me when I have secret keys and data showing in my projects stored on github and deployed apps.
