"Seamless integration" Posted 2022-10-30
Pros: Quick and easy integration into code repository (GitHub) and into CI/CD pipelines using GG-Shield.
UI fresh and easy to navigate.Cons: Historic scans are great, but it would be good to tag which historic scans have pulled back scans within git history as opposed to an actual branch.
Overall: Good experience with these guys so far, with the upcoming ADO integration, GitGuardian will become our number one secret scanning tool. Detection engine and ease of integration puts you at the top of the pile.
