Review about recent project upload to GitHub – Aniket Patil.
What do you like best about the product?
Suppose we accidentally add any sensitive information e.g. secret keys/passwords to GitHub/GitLab during the file upload. In that case, GitGuardian sends an email indicating the potentially vulnerable secret data so that we can immediately fix it.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don’t find any downsides about GitGuardian as of now. Everything worked well for me as of now.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Leakage of secret data / sensitive information potentially causes a risk to the end user. It may be a financial or business loss to the organization if secret data is accidentally visible to the people outside the organization. GitGuardian solves this issue by categorizing the risk into critical/major/minor categories. We benefit in terms of knowing the possible cause and we can take immediate action to remove any sensitive data.
