GitGuardian Repository Scanning: An Essential Tool

Kommentare: Our primary goal is to ensure secrets aren't accidentally exposed in our repositories, and it's the perfect tool for that!

Vorteile:

GitGuardian is so easy to setup and use. I love how simple it is to analyze your repositories on GitHub and be warned if commits contain secrets.

Nachteile:

The "free" Team pricing requires a manual support process, but it's not that big of a deal.

Fit to purpose to our needs / Very little I need to admin

Kommentare: GitGuardian is now actively included in our core CI/CD pipeline. Setup was very easy and, and the time I need now to admin it is close to zero. After the initial adoption, "avoiding secrets in first instance" is now part of our standard practice. I would say GitGuardian is now our insurance that secrets are not disclosed inadvertently.

Vorteile:

Easy to install. I mean, very easy! I have followed the "Quick-Start" guide, it took me about 30 mins. and when I read "Start Remediating" I thought it was the time to figure out how to adapt to our own environment and I have spent a couple of hours to set-up a manual/parallel integration that was totally unnecessary. I like the remediation flow: no emails back and forth, it simplifies the communication and the resolution of incidents across users. I can easily narrow the scope to what is critical to us, this has reduced the remediation effort to specific and relevant incidents. Automatic notifications: as an admin, I do not need to investigate every and each incident. GitHub Integration: secrets within code are automaticall detected and merge is blocked.

Nachteile:

So many ways to integrate, it might be a plus for others, it was confusing to me. in my case I was not clear if I needed a "VCS/GitHub" or "CI/CD GitHub Actions" integration. Pricing plan for small business is not fully clear and requires to "contact sales".

Easy to use for GitHub, not so easy for ADO.

Vorteile:

Very easy to setup, simply a few clicks and you're done. Quickly alerts in near real time.

Nachteile:

No support for integrating with ADO, which is frustrating because we've had to purchase another tool for this.

GitGuardian integrates in a snap!

Kommentare: We are using GitGuardian to prevent secrets from leaking into repositories both public and private. So far our experience has been excellent. We actually leaked a private SSH key and got a notification from GitGuardian almost immediately. We were able to revoke the key and remediate the blunder.

Vorteile:

Integration was a snap. We're already using pre-commit for most of our repos so hooking GitGuardian into the process was simple. Since we also already use GitHub, we found integration to be extremely easy.

Nachteile:

We had no issues integrating GitGuardian and have not found any cons, yet.

Git the getter

Kommentare: Very satisfied

Vorteile:

The ease of use and ui and features makes me use git guardian daily

Nachteile:

Bugs an atuff can make it harder to use sometimes

GitGuardian the best to maintain a security of the repos in git

Kommentare: It has been great I trust it and the securities of my repos

Vorteile:

It is pretty important to maintain the security of repos. I did not even aware of these until gitGuardian took place in my development.

Nachteile:

I think a more friendly user interface is required to the dashboard of gitGuardian

Great product

Kommentare: Very positive, I'll be using it going forward and recommending it

Vorteile:

GitGuardian has already saved my MySQL database and NewRelic accounts, the early alerts are fantastic.

Nachteile:

Nothing really, the alerts are timely and informative, will use it on all my repos.

Feel confident that your developers arn't commiting secrets.

Kommentare: Very positive, I feel more confident now that secrets wont be in git long if they are committed at all. I can trust if I haven't gotten an alert that there are no secrets.

Vorteile:

I like the timely notifications when there is an alert, and the triage for dealing with them are quick and easily understood by users.

Nachteile:

Integration with github more to create issues and pull requests to remove secrets would be nice.

A+ for GitGuardian

Kommentare: Very happy customer of GitGuardian and use their scans to inform how we manage secrets.

Vorteile:

Love that the product makes it so easy to identify when secrets have been checked into the code! Coupled with the low price point, this is a HUGE win for our team + code base.

Nachteile:

The UI is a little tricky to navigate because there's so much information presented. For example, it's hard for me to figure out how to exclude certain repos from their scans.

GitGuradian Helps me find the Repos.

Kommentare: I like GitGuradian, although I frequently use it in a week

Vorteile:

Finding a repo which is urgently needed to me It makes easy for me.

Nachteile:

It is a little bit more expensive as compared.

Easy to use and very useful

Vorteile:

It is hard to keep track of your projects all the time and GitGuardian does that for you reliably.

Nachteile:

Sometimes you may get spammed with unimportant notifications.

My Experience with GitGuardian

Kommentare: I like the experience so far, would love to use it more in the future

Vorteile:

It is very important for developers those are not especially good at keeping those secrets safe.

Nachteile:

More Friendlier UI, for easy management of things.

Must use it

Kommentare: I have a habit of keeping file and secret together for simplicity, But many time have pushed those and key and username again and again. I have pushed almost for 7-8 times. Now days i do that mistake rarely but in earlier days I was struggle with this issue

Vorteile:

Scans for secret is the best thing of this software

Nachteile:

There is nothing more we can get from this software. Its absolutely perfect!!!!!... :)

The platform at the height of our needs

Vorteile:

Gitguardian is the response to our expectations, since he answered all our preoccupations, both in terms of monitoring and at risk alert

Nachteile:

This platform is really perfect for our cost structure, and in terms of features that's all we needed

Essential tool for modern developers

Vorteile:

Easy to configure and use. Notifies about leaked secrets and potential vulnerabilities in GitHub repos.

Nachteile:

Would be nice to have suggested improvements automated for simple and common mistakes.

Really a Guardian ...

Kommentare: 5 stars

Vorteile:

The product is easy to use and easily integrable. I love how it alerts me when I have secrets exposed.

Nachteile:

I didn't explore much but I like everything till now ... :)

Great Product

Vorteile:

if you were to leak your smtp credentials or env variables accidentally you get notified immediately thus protecting you

Nachteile:

They add a webhook in every repository with no clear way to removing all of them.Rest To Be Determined

Lifesaver for solo or small teams

Vorteile:

Has kept me from pushing private keys to repos and alerted me when I have so I can quickly update. Must have for small teams or solo devs such as myself.

Nachteile:

I don't have any cons, I don't use GitGuardian as much as a very dev heavy team might though.

A great tool to avoid securities issues

Vorteile:

The real time notification system allowing to control the secrets leak instantly

Nachteile:

At first I was concern about the data Gitguardian has access but I think they manage it pretty clear

Exactly as Expected

Vorteile:

It's easy to use and documentation is concise and straightforward

Nachteile:

Oftentimes can feel like it is used in niche cases but it more pertinent than expected

Protector of all things Coded.

Kommentare: I'm new to GitGuardian and a CS student in college. That being said, I'm prone to accidentally commenting security keys in code and forgetting to delete them before commit. The GitGuardian tool has been assisting me in ensuring my recent project applications are not exposed and the easy integration is a big plus.

Vorteile:

Git Secret Detection and Incident report.

Nachteile:

None I can think of yet. But with time there will be additional features that can help ensure optimal security during development. Like some sort of integration in VS Code itself.

GitGuardian Review

Vorteile:

It is very intuitive in set up and use of dashboards. Lots of documentation available and it feels like a very reliable tool

Nachteile:

I didn't find it easy to contact a support line

Helpful for lazy people

Vorteile:

It's very common to let Firebase keys leak so i like that it catches them

Nachteile:

Unclear how to remove webhooks from my repositories
