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.
