Take control of incident management with custom tags. This feature allows you to categorize, filter, and search incidents using customized labels, offering greater flexibility in tracking and prioritizing incidents, and improving remediation workflows.

For developers, you can interact with custom tags via the API. For more information, visit the API documentation.

For more details on how to use custom tags within the GitGuardian platform, check out our detailed guide.

Detect hardcoded secrets in your Container Registries

Container Registries Thumbnail

We are excited to introduce Secret detection for Container Registries, including:

  • microsoft-azure-container-registry Azure Container Registry
  • amazon-ecr Amazon Elastic Container Registry
  • google-artifact-registry Google Artifact Registry
  • jfrog JFrog Artifactory
  • dockerhub DockerHub

Secrets often end up in container images due to common mistakes during development and image creation, mainly:

  • Hardcoding Secrets in Code: Developers may directly embed sensitive credentials, such as API keys or passwords, into application code, which gets packaged into container images.
  • Misconfigured Dockerfiles: Commands like ENV or RUN in Dockerfiles can inadvertently expose sensitive data during the build process.

By identifying and addressing hardcoded credentials early in the development pipeline, this feature significantly minimizes the risk of security breaches, helping you prevent the unintended exposure of sensitive information before it even reaches production.

Explore and prioritize your Generic Incidents

GSE-filters

We are excited to unveil the "Generic Secret Enricher V1", a machine learning model designed to enhance our capabilities in generic secret detection. This innovative model analyzes the entire context of a document, identifying the company and category associated with a secret, thereby providing meaningful insights to help users understand the origin and type of a discovered secret.

New Features

  • Contextual Analysis: Upon detection of a generic secret, our platform analyzes the full document context to determine the associated provider or category of a secret.

  • Efficient Classification: This feature reduces the need for manual classification, enabling users to quickly comprehend the source and nature of a discovered generic secret.

  • New Filters: We've introduced three new filters - Provider, Category, Family - to help identify critical generic incidents. To use these, filter your incidents by the "Generic" type, then apply a combination of these filters.

Goals

Our long-term goal is to provide you with actionable insights, prioritize their generic incidents, and improve their remediation efforts.

Usage

To use the new filters, simply filter your incidents by the "Generic" type, then apply a combination of the Provider, Category, and Family filters. This will help you identify the most significant or critical generic incidents, such as those classified under "Data Storage" or linked to the provider "Postgresql".


Fixes

  • Jira Cloud Issue Tracking Integration: Resolved an issue where integration entered an invalid state after being uninstalled.
  • Microsoft Teams Alerts for Security Incidents: Resolved an issue where the wrong team was displayed during configuration.
