Clear, concise, helpful

  • June 12, 2024

What do you like best about the product?
It's very easy to set up and use, it returns informative, detailed, and actionable findings on secrets, enables us to filter irrelevant findings easily, it's two clicks integration with GitHub, have a fairly swift support and quick alerting.
What do you dislike about the product?
A bit of tinkering is needed to set it up so you don't get delivered false positives, but initial setup is expected, so not sure if it's even a downside.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It helps detect secrets that might have been missed in previous iterations of the code, prevent devs from leaving secrets within the code (timely warning before deployment so we can review), distills segments of the code that are acceptable for public exposure.

Great to think my secrets are safe!

  • June 10, 2024
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
One of the most practical aspects is that we may sometimes overlook the configuration settings or the values of environment variables, but now, that's no longer a concern. GitGurdian will take care of that. And it's very very easy to integrate and the features it has are well rounded. And the support from the team is also sensibly quick and responsive.
What do you dislike about the product?
There isn't anything specific, but I believe the user interface could be more intuitive.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Security constraints are often overlooked, but GitGuardian has addressed this issue for us by providing a way to resolve and escalate concerns to senior staff for review.

Alerts. GitGuardian has been saving my careless self from incurring unsolicited cost on APIs. Alerts when secrets are leaked are timely and provide insights into how to resolve them
What do you dislike about the product?
The UI feels a bit antiquated and clunky.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's been notifying me of leaked secrets in commits.

Effective tool to find exposed secrets

  • May 26, 2024
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Beautiful UI, Ease to use, very fast in finding secrets in code repositories, it took less than one minute to receive an email after some commits in a new branch I was working last week =)
What do you dislike about the product?
It's not a dislike, but I have a sugestion: I haven't studied a lot about gitguardian yet, but I think that it could have an automatic correction tool for hiding the secrets it finds in our repositories.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I still haven't studied many things in gitguardian, but it's amazing to have an automatic repository reviewer to find secrets exposed, I am now planning to study other features so I can take the next level on my code security

GitGuardian for Master's Project

  • May 14, 2024
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I have been using GitGuardian for my college Project. First and foremost UX is really good and intuitive. My project is around security so I am aware of the necessity of that and GitGuardian is an appropriate alternative to other open source products. I faced a problem initally and i found enough support to help me around.
What do you dislike about the product?
They could work on a more refined payment plan. This will give more flexibity to all category of developers.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have been working on creating a product to provide better enterprise search solutions and this has been helping there.

Helps increase productivity and identify and prioritize security incidents

  • May 02, 2024
  • Review provided by PeerSpot

What is our primary use case?

Our developers use the GitGuardian platform to securely access and manage secrets within their repositories. This allows them to identify and address any potential security risks.

How has it helped my organization?

GitGuardian's detection capabilities are good.

The accuracy of detections and the false positive rate are good.

It has improved the abilities of our developers and security team.

The playbooks help to identify and prioritize security incidents.

GitGuardian helped us increase our secret detection rate.

GitGuardian helped to increase our security team's productivity. It allows us to find the secrets and their repository faster. As the security team is focusing on one app to audit it, we also look at the GitGuardian findings for that app, and that is easier than looking for the secrets manually.

What is most valuable?

The most valuable feature is the general incident reporting system. It provides informative data with good filtering and reporting options.

What needs improvement?

We'd like to request a new GitGuardian feature that automates user onboarding and access control for code repositories. Ideally, when a user contributes to a repository, they would be automatically added to GitGuardian and granted access to view that specific repository. This would eliminate the need for manual user creation and permission assignment within the platform.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using the GitGuardian Platform for one and a half years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

The GitGuardian Platform is stable.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

The GitGuardian Platform can deploy at scale.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

The pricing for GitGuardian is fair.

What other advice do I have?

I would rate the GitGuardian Platform eight out of ten.

Getting started with GitGuardian required some preliminary setup on our part. This involved configuring both our on-premise GitHub Enterprise server and the GitGuardian application itself, granting the application access to the enterprise server.

GitGuardian requires around two hours per week of maintenance. We have our scripts that add users to the tool as needed. So we have a script that looks at our GitHub server talks to that API, and uses the information from that to add users to GitGuardian. And we have to maintain those because sometimes just like with any code, we have to make sure that process is still working.

GitGuardian's onboarding process and customer success teams were helpful.

I recommend GitGuardian as an easy-to-use tool that tackles a major security risk often overlooked by companies. This platform can significantly improve your software development lifecycle.

While detecting hidden functionality within a security program for application development isn't the highest priority, it does hold some value. If resources allow, it's worth considering incorporating methods to identify such secrets.

Organizations considering the GitGuardian Platform should establish clear action points for employees who will be using the tool. This ensures everyone understands how to leverage GitGuardian effectively within their workflow.
