What it is
GitGuardian is a commercial secrets and non-human identity security platform. It monitors private and public code, CI/CD systems and collaboration tools for leaked credentials, helps teams remediate incidents, and extends into NHI governance and developer endpoint protection on higher tiers. A free Internal Secrets Monitoring plan covers small teams; business plans add scale and enterprise controls.
What it helps with
- Real-time and historical scanning for API keys, tokens and other secrets in repositories.
- Alerting developers and security teams when credentials leak, including public GitHub monitoring options.
- Prioritising valid, exploitable secrets rather than noisy regex-only matches where validity checks apply.
- Integrating with GitHub, GitLab, CI systems and productivity tools in the SDLC.
- Supporting open-source organisations and individual developers on free Internal Monitoring.
- Scaling to business seats, public monitoring and NHI governance with commercial plans.
Who it's for
Developers, AppSec and SecOps teams that need managed secrets detection with a free starting tier, as a peer to TruffleHog Enterprise and similar products already drafted alongside Semgrep and Snyk.
Worth knowing
GitGuardian publishes a Free plan (for example up to 25 developers with real-time scanning and limited historical detections) and paid Business or enterprise packages (illustrative AWS Marketplace pricing around thousands of dollars per year per 25 developers). Official pricing: gitguardian.com/pricing. Press kit logos are available from GitGuardian. Authorised secrets security use only.
