Summary: I love how GitGuardian helps me keep our repositories secure by scanning for exposed secrets and sensitive information. Its advanced monitoring capabilities ensure that any potential vulnerabilities are swiftly detected and addressed. The ease of integration into our existing workflows makes it a seamless addition to our development process. Plus, the real-time alerts and comprehensive reporting give me peace of mind knowing that our code and data are well protected. Overall, GitGuardian is an invaluable tool in maintaining the security and integrity of our projects.
Positive: GitGuardian solves the critical issue of securing sensitive information and secrets within our code repositories. By scanning for exposed credentials, API keys, and other confidential data, it helps prevent potential security breaches and data leaks.
Negative: As much as I appreciate GitGuardian's security features, I find the user interface a bit challenging to navigate at times. It could benefit from some streamlining to make the experience more intuitive. Additionally, it would be helpful to have the option to remove commits directly within the platform, rather than having to resort to external tools or commands. Despite these minor inconveniences, GitGuardian remains a crucial asset in safeguarding our repositories.

Amazing For Security Date: Jan 16 2023
Summary: Amazing experience using GitGuardian on all of my projects, currently I'm only using it for personal project, but I would absolutely recommends it to my workplace as well. I would love a version that we could deploy on internal git as well.
Positive: - Notify you the second you did a bad commit
- List out all the committed credentials across all of your repository, make sure you know what credentials have been leaked
- There's even an option to ignore on the correct reason, e.g. example credentials, fake credentials, or deactivated oneNegative: I wouldn't say there are major cons of GitGuardian at all, they've done all the right things to keep your credentials safe. Just that I found out about GitGuardian after they suddenly emailed me about a leaked credentials, great marketing, just a bit.. creepy.
