The project is built as the local and CI-facing companion to GitGuardian's secret-detection service, using the GitGuardian public API through the py-gitguardian client. ### Adoptionsgeschichte The tool gained adoption through several security workflows rather than one single editor or platform: local scans, pre-commit and pre-push hooks, CI/CD jobs, GitHub Actions, GitLab, Jenkins, Docker-image scans, package scans, and packaged distribution through PyPI, Homebrew, Chocolatey, Cloudsmith packages, and standalone installers. ### Wie es verwendet wird Practitioners authenticate with `ggshield auth login` or an API key, then scan paths, repositories, staged changes, Docker images, package artifacts, or CI workspaces. Teams commonly install it as a pre-commit, pre-push, or pre-receive hook so leaked credentials are blocked before they enter shared repositories. ### Warum Paket-Nerds sich dafür interessieren For package ecosystems, ggshield is notable because it packages a SaaS-backed security control as a normal developer CLI: it can be installed by a package manager, run in a hook, and produce exit codes that fit standard CI pipelines. ### Zeitleiste - 2020: The GitGuardian ggshield repository was created. - 2020: The 1.0.x release line appeared in the GitHub release feed. - 2026: The release feed showed the 1.52 series. ### Related projects - ggshield is closely tied to GitGuardian's public API and py-gitguardian client, and it overlaps operationally with pre-commit, CI/CD systems, and repository-hosting security workflows. ### Quellen - - - - - - - - ## Sicherheitshinweise Für ggshield wurde kein passendes lokales Secret-Handling-Manifest gefunden.
