Introducing SecretsBuster: enhancing cybersecurity, one secret at a time

Building an application is complex. Securing an application is difficult.

Despite all the attention developers may pay to their application, the richness of modern tooling and the inherent complexity of the IT system can lead to the disclosure of your secrets: tokens, private keys, credentials... Once revealed, these secrets become as many entry points to your infrastructure, your code, your data (your clients' data?). And once the attacker is in, it's already too late!

It is essential to keep your application's secrets... secret. This is the mission of SecretsBuster.

Unlike services aimed at preventing the disclosure of your secrets (useful tools, but which cannot guarantee exhaustive coverage outside of simple applications), SecretsBuster will adopt the same approach as potential attackers: methodically browsing the entire public surface of your application in search of leaks.

Our service will visit your site as well as all the resources it comprises, exactly like a living user. For each resource, it will look for potential leaks by comparing the content with our bank of secret patterns. We constantly update this bank to continually extend our detection capabilities based on the emergence of new technologies or attack vectors.

By automating the protection of your application with SecretsBuster, you will ensure the detection of your leaks before they can be exploited.

For now, you can test SecretsBuster through our site, but our goal is to soon provide the security of your applications through a complete and automatable service on demand. Our API is under construction, and we are eager to unveil it soon!

Let's embark on this journey together as we strive to enhance cybersecurity, one secret at a time.
