Kiuwan and GitGuardian Public Monitoring are key players in risk management and security intelligence. GitGuardian seems to have the upper hand due to its specialized focus on real-time monitoring of public repositories and secrets exposure.
Features: Kiuwan includes software composition analysis, customizable policy management, and seamless workflow integration. GitGuardian offers advanced public repository monitoring, real-time detection of exposed credentials, and direct alerts for security breaches.
Room for Improvement: Kiuwan can enhance real-time alerts, improve user accessibility, and expand technological capabilities. GitGuardian could increase coverage beyond GitHub, improve cross-platform integration, and enhance user experience for wider adoption.
Ease of Deployment and Customer Service: Kiuwan provides straightforward deployment options in both cloud and on-premise environments with reliable customer service. GitGuardian emphasizes cloud-based deployment, offering quick setup but with mixed reviews on support quality.
Pricing and ROI: Kiuwan is praised for cost-effectiveness and lower setup costs, suitable for budget-conscious businesses. GitGuardian commands a higher price but offers notable ROI for enterprises focusing on immediate risk mitigation and sensitive data security.
GitGuardian Public Monitoring allows real-time GitHub scanning and alerting to uncover sensitive company information hiding in online repositories. It monitors both organization repositories and developers' personal repositories. The solution gives visibility to developers and security teams on this very critical blindspot that are the organization developers' personal repositories on GitHub (80% of leaked corporate secrets on public GitHub come from developers’ personal repositories).
GitGuardian Public Monitoring is particularly interesting for companies with large development teams (above 200 developers) and modern development practices.
GitGuardian Public Monitoring cover 350+ API providers, database connection strings, private keys, certificates, usernames and passwords and intellectual property. It uses sophisticated pattern matching techniques to detect credentials that cannot be strictly defined with a distinctive pattern (like unprefixed credentials). The algorithm has a high precision (91% “true positive” feedback following our alerts, as reported by our users.)
The alerting is done in real-time (a few seconds after the secret was publicly exposed) which allows fast remediation involving in a collaborative way developers, security teams and operations.
GitGuardian Public Monitoring also allows red teams and pentesters to proactively look for sensitive information by performing complex queries on 12 billion documents and metadata from more than 3 years of GitHub history.
GitGuardian Public Monitoring scans public GitHub activity in real-time, helping organizations detect sensitive information leaks in source code repositories. Our solution gives Threat Intelligence and Security teams full visibility over their organization’s public GitHub Attack Surface, by monitoring both organization-owned repositories and developers' personal repositories.
With 80% of secrets and credentials leaks on public GitHub finding their source in developers' personal repositories, GitGuardian for Public Monitoring helps organizations address a critical security blind spot.
