Did you know that you can addÂ
your own custom detectors to make GitGuardian Secret Detection even more powerful? GitGuardian already looks for over 390Â
different types of specific secrets from Adobe and AWS keys toÂ
Zoom and Zendesk Tokens. That's on top of looking for over a dozen genericÂ
patterns like bearer tokens and JSON web tokens. For some enterprise, though, especially thoseÂ
writing their own APIs and orchestrating custom services, total coverage means adding additionalÂ
detectors that GitGuardian should scan for. Good news! Anyone on a Business planÂ
can now request to extend GitGuardian's secrets detection engine to supportÂ
detectors specific to their organization. To submit your own detector, open your GitGuardian Workspace and click on SettingsÂ
in the lower left-hand sidebar Next, navigate to the SecretsÂ
detection menu and click on Table of Detectors from the navigationalÂ
tab or just scroll down to that section. Click on the Add a Custom Detector buttonÂ
on the right-hand side and provide all the requested information, including any RegEx youÂ
have written. The more detail here, the better. Once submitted, the engineering teamÂ
will acknowledge the request and get to work. They will soon get in touchÂ
with you to validate the detector. Adding your own custom detectors is just one more way GitGUardian Secret Detection canÂ
help ensure your secrets stay secret.
