Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"Having a cloud detection response helps to very quickly identify security threats in our environment.""We have a strong sense of security assurance when utilizing CloudGuard, as it consistently delivers outstanding protection capabilities.""We have had a number of real events where developers accidentally made commits of API keys, and we were able to detect and begin response actions in minutes. We had the API key revoked in less than five minutes in such events.""Automation has helped a lot to identify and automatically execute policies, rules, and blocks due to its machine learning.""Its fastest and most outstanding characteristic is ensuring a development line that will not lead to applying applications or code development.""Check Point CloudGuard Code Security helps to improve the code security of our company, generating rapid and complete assessments to be able to make decisions for improvements.""Compared to what we used before, it's helping us to be more efficient in managing our traffic.""Knowing what measures we must take allows us to reduce costs associated with security in the cloud by providing early identification of a risk or a possible security breach."

"The Explore function is valuable for finding specific things I'm looking for.""One thing I really like about it is the fact that we can add search words or specific payloads inside the tool, and GitGuardian will look into GitHub and alert us if any of these words is found in a repository... With this capability in the tool, we have good surveillance over our potential blind spots."

Cons
"The costs are not transparent.""They could include web functionalities such as sandboxing.""There are a lot of opportunities for how they can use their technology to do more. That would be more like sensitive data discovery and other things besides Git Repos, but then you are expanding the scope of what necessarily their product is.""It is generally difficult to find documentation about the product, and there is relatively little to find.""This is a highly technical solution for users who do not have security experience. It requires specialized knowledge of configurations to use it correctly.""We need to have many of the baselines or development guides providing less complex writing or development.""The enhancements are needed in the logging system and log management processes.""I would like this solution to be extended to cellular devices or tablets."

"I would like to see improvement in some of the user interface features... When one secret is leaked in multiple files or multiple repositories, it will appear on the dashboard. But when you click on that secret, all the occurrences will appear on the page. It would be better to have one secret per occurrence, directly, so that we don't have to click to get to the list of all the occurrences.""I'm excited about the possibility of Public Postman scanning being integrated with GitGuardian in the future. Additionally, I'm interested in exploring the potential use of honeytokens, which seems like a compelling approach to lure and identify attackers."

    Overview

    CloudGuard Code Security’s automated tools integrate with developers’ tools to detect code vulnerabilities and to identify secrets and misconfigurations in the code before deployment, preventing unauthorized use to nefarious ends. With CloudGuard Code Security, organizations can prevent exposing API keys, tokens and credentials, in addition to remediating security misconfigurations. With a super-fast platform, CloudGuard Code Security ensures security without compromising productivity.

    GitGuardian Public Monitoring allows real-time GitHub scanning and alerting to uncover sensitive company information hiding in online repositories. It monitors both organization repositories and developers' personal repositories. The solution gives visibility to developers and security teams on this very critical blindspot that are the organization developers' personal repositories on GitHub (80% of leaked corporate secrets on public GitHub come from developers’ personal repositories).

    GitGuardian Public Monitoring is particularly interesting for companies with large development teams (above 200 developers) and modern development practices.

    GitGuardian Public Monitoring cover 350+ API providers, database connection strings, private keys, certificates, usernames and passwords and intellectual property. It uses sophisticated pattern matching techniques to detect credentials that cannot be strictly defined with a distinctive pattern (like unprefixed credentials). The algorithm has a high precision (91% “true positive” feedback following our alerts, as reported by our users.)

    The alerting is done in real-time (a few seconds after the secret was publicly exposed) which allows fast remediation involving in a collaborative way developers, security teams and operations.

    GitGuardian Public Monitoring also allows red teams and pentesters to proactively look for sensitive information by performing complex queries on 12 billion documents and metadata from more than 3 years of GitHub history.

    GitGuardian Public Monitoring scans public GitHub activity in real-time, helping organizations detect sensitive information leaks in source code repositories. Our solution gives Threat Intelligence and Security teams full visibility over their organization’s public GitHub Attack Surface, by monitoring both organization-owned repositories and developers' personal repositories.

    With 80% of secrets and credentials leaks on public GitHub finding their source in developers' personal repositories, GitGuardian for Public Monitoring helps organizations address a critical security blind spot.

    With real-time incident notification, Threat Intelligence and Security teams are guaranteed to reach the incident scene before everyone else and take action to mitigate the threat of breaches and intrusions.
