Secrets Across the SDLC
Cycode provides comprehensive coverage by identifying exposed secrets throughout the entire SDLC – in repositories, pipelines, runtime, and even collaboration channels such as Slack.
GitGuardian Alternative for Hardcoded Secret Detection
Securing applications and the software supply chain requires understanding the relationships between applications, components, people, tools, pipelines, runtime environments and risks.
The Cycode platform was built specifically to fill the visibility gaps that have historically frustrated application security programs.
