GitGuardian was co-founded in 2017 by two passionate engineers, with Eric Fourrier -actual CEO, who wondered if they could find secrets (API keys, authentication tokens, passwords) leaked on public GitHub.
And they did! They were astonished by the magnitude of what they found: not just random secrets but secrets exposing very large organizations and governments. This is how GitGuardian was born. Since then, GitGuardian has come a long way, growing rapidly and securing solid funding from prominent investors, becoming an international leader in secrets detection and NHI security.
