GitHub Scanner

Detect secrets and credentials

• Finds common secret formats (API keys, tokens, credentials, private keys).
• Detects hardcoded environment variables and config values in code.
• Highlights likely secret candidates based on patterns and context.

Locate issues with context

• Pinpoints file locations and relevant snippets (so fixes are quick).
• Groups similar issues to reduce noise and focus on real risks.
• Helps differentiate test/demo keys vs production-like secrets.

Misconfiguration and insecure patterns

• Flags risky configurations that commonly lead to leaks or weak auth.
• Detects patterns like insecure defaults, debug logging of tokens, or exposed endpoints.
• Surfaces repeat offenders across repos to help standardize fixes.

Remediation workflow

• Recommends safe storage (env vars, secret managers) and cleanup steps.
• Suggests rotation steps when a real secret is found (invalidate + replace).
• Supports rescanning to confirm the issue is fully removed.
