The powers of git guardian
Likeliness to Recommend
What differentiates GitGuardian from other similar products?
Haven't tried others, I've been using this for 1.5years and am very proud.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
The fact that I've made mistakes where I've exposed api keys a couple of times, and immidiately got an email by git guardian saying that I've exposed a secret. There is a great UI to work with, where you can say if it's a false positive, if it's resolved, if it's a secret but you want it public etc.
What do you dislike most about this product?
If I am not wrong, git guardian is fulfilling it's purpose. It's supposed to protect me and my secrets. I have no dislikes about it.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
#1 reason why you would try it, it's gonna happen sometime in the future when you're gonna leak some code and not see it. Then you would regret it. Better safe then sorry.
Pros
- Reliable
- Performance Enhancing
- Enables Productivity
- Trustworthy
