How it all started

When Eric and Jérémy started out GitGuardian in 2017, they were working full time together as data scientists and software engineers. GitGuardian, the secret detection platform, was that side project that thrilled them every time they wrote a line of code. That thing that they were building and that made them so happy because they knew for sure they were creating some value and happiness for users.

It all started with collecting all the public commits pushed to GitHub in real time. With so much data at hand and a bit of manual inspection, they were astonished by the order of magnitude of secrets sprawl. Since the beginning GitGuardian has been working hard to make hackers' life a bit tougher!

Innovate, step by step

The very technical industry in which we operate requires us to be analytical, precise, detailed, and to innovate with an iterative approach. Guardians are far-reaching and love a job well done. We hypothesize, analyze, measure our results and evolve our work and our approach to the challenges we face.

Committed to serve

We have helped many companies though their evaluation process by providing a structured, straightforward questionnaire to help them evaluate their needs and requirements, weigh them so that they can compare us with alternatives. Our products are easy to test:

For GitGuardian Public Monitoring: we’ve been monitoring the whole GitHub public activity and detecting secrets leaked there since 2017. During the sales process, if you allow us to do so, we will show your security team the GitGuardian dashboard populated with actual data from your company’s perimeter.

For GitGuardian Internal Monitoring: you will be given access to a free trial with unlimited features for you to test the product in real conditions before potentially buying. We have also walked many companies through a thorough POC.
