What do you like best about the product?
Very quick response to issues on GitHub projects.
Detailed explanation of the issue.
Detailed explanation of the issue.
What do you dislike about the product?
Soometimes I think, GitGuardian is not right.
E.g. some infomation is stored in .env files, like passwords or STMP access. This is often not wrong in my mind.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
At the moment, G2 is helping to show potential issues, however most of the time, I considered that as not a high risk issue.
Essential Tool for Detecting Security Risks in Codebases
What do you like best about the product?
GitGuardian is excellent at detecting sensitive information, such as API keys and credentials, in real-time across repositories. It integrates seamlessly with platforms like GitHub and provides timely alerts, which makes securing codebases easy and efficient. The dashboard is intuitive and helps track potential vulnerabilities effectively.
What do you dislike about the product?
The main downside is that the frequent alerts can sometimes feel overwhelming, especially for large projects with many contributors. More fine-tuned control over alert settings could help reduce noise without compromising security.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
GitGuardian helps us prevent sensitive data leaks by automatically scanning for exposed secrets such as API keys, credentials, and tokens in our repositories. This has significantly reduced the risk of security breaches and ensures compliance with security best practices, making our codebase much more secure. It saves us time by automating the process and provides peace of mind knowing that potential vulnerabilities are detected early.
Detecting secret keys as fast at scale
What do you like best about the product?
When i pushed the secret keys or there is an threat in code able to detecting and making noise in my mail box 😉
What do you dislike about the product?
As i think in it.
Nothing as of now.
Nothing as of now.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
If there an threat or vulnerable or secret keys in my code, able to detecting it smootly.
It has caught many secrets I accidentally leaked. And seems to be quite good in monitoring them.
What do you like best about the product?
That it works very fast and it notifies me adequately
What do you dislike about the product?
Could give a false sense of security if it does miss some kind of secret
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I think it's self explanatory
Helps with insidents
What do you like best about the product?
Automated scanning of my github repositories. It's quite easy to use and get started. No implementation struggle so it's easy to implement. I've not tried to contact the customer support but I like that it's available. It's easy to integrate as you just login to github to get started.
What do you dislike about the product?
The cost seems to be quite high. I do understand it's for businesses but it helped me identify a secret key I had left in for my college project. I tend not to use it much as a college student but it's cost does not seem valid to me i.e., low frequency of use.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use it to indentify compromised secret keys although it has helped me, it could not detect a password for an email account.
life saver
What do you like best about the product?
it mails us and gives the link making it easy to implement and use and it basically a lifesaver for me as I am someone who usually forgets to protect the API keys it is git guardian which always mails and another good thing is they allow to check if the API key is still valid.
What do you dislike about the product?
there are no major downside to git guardian but If it was possible to remove something from git logs that will be really good
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
helping my pocket by letting me know when I forget my API key in the codebase and not hiding it
Great for Catching Secrets, But Needs a Privacy Option
What do you like best about the product?
GitGuardian does a fantastic job at what it’s meant to do—catching secret leaks in your code. I’ve been really impressed with how well it scans my repos and flags potential security issues. It’s definitely something that gives me peace of mind knowing my code is being looked after.
What do you dislike about the product?
There’s no option to exclude private repos from the scans, which feels a bit overkill for me. My private repos are just for my own projects, not shared with anyone, so I really don’t need them to be scanned.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
GitGuardian is solving the issue of accidentally exposing secrets like API keys and credentials in my code. It’s super helpful because it scans my repos automatically and catches things I might have missed.
For a robust check on preventing data leakage and ensuring secure operations
What do you like best about the product?
Ease of Integration with github.
Ease of Use
Ease of Use
What do you dislike about the product?

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Secure code review is a critical aspect of ensuring the robustness and resilience of software applications
A tool that every developer needs
What do you like best about the product?
alerts about the code components that put my systems at risk of attacks
What do you dislike about the product?
Not sending emails when the issue is resolved
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I majorly work on edtech systems were code security is key, git gurdian helps us to spend less on paying specialists to identify threats
The best secrect scanning format I have ever used
What do you like best about the product?
By scanning throughout the development process, GitGuardian helps catch secret leaks early on, preventing them from reaching production. I use in all of my projects. Its very easy to implement and integrate with a help of a yaml file and some button clicks. Sometimes I even forget that I have gitguardian enabled, It always sves my day from a leaked secrect.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometime it scans secrect from the test file and mark it as leaked secrect which can be annoying.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Accidental secrect reveal or accidental test credential revealed is being solved by GitGuardian
