Stored Secrets

Hardcoded secrets in your code are very common sources of code weakness. If your code is publicly hosted, attackers will find these credentials and use them to try to compromise your systems.

Even if your code is not hosted publicly, attackers that compromise your developers' machines and malicious developers will have access to these credentials.

When viewing findings results in the dashboard, the detected secrets will appear as Secret found in repository (secret-found-in-repository) with a description specifying one of the following supported secret types.
