Secret scanning (SS)

Keep hardcoded secrets out of your software

  • Automated detection of exposed credentials in code, configuration files and infrastructure-as-code

  • Secret scanning in development and CI/CD to help stop risky changes before deployment

  • Detailed findings with severity, evidence and remediation guidance on the Fluid Attacks platform

Why your company should choose Fluid Attacks' secret scanning

Early detection before deployment

Our secret scanning can run locally via a CLI and in CI/CD pipelines, including our dedicated GitHub Action, which runs automatically on every push or pull request to show findings directly in your PR comments and security tab. This helps your teams detect exposed credentials before they reach production. With the strict flag in our CI Gate, the scan can fail the pipeline when secrets are found, blocking risky changes before deployment.

Coverage for many kinds of exposed secrets

Detection beyond the application source code

Multi-layer detection to reduce noise

Findings ready for remediation

Portable output for developer and security workflows
