GitGuardian is an end-to-end NHI security platform designed to help organizations strengthen their Non-Human Identity (NHI) security posture and address compliance standards and regulations. As attackers increasingly target NHIs, such as service accounts, service principals, and applications, protecting and managing these critical assets has become paramount.

BetterCloud
BetterCloud is well suited for small to medium sized companies where a small technology support team can exponentially improve their capacity thru the available automation. When a company's data set starts to grow larger than 50-60 million objects and ~30k+ users there is still a good return on the investment but the population that BetterCloud has catered to for so long does not seem to be plentiful and shared experiences and community are just not there. Where a company that size might have a handful of technically capable team members that push for functionality that doesn't seem niche, there isn't much of a crowd to bounce those large scale ideas off of.

I do think it'll absolutely fit everyone who codes integrates with another platform or services. We all forget that one credentials one in a while, and especially those who managed public repository, it is important to keep an eye on accidentally committed credentials. While I think you don't really needs it for personal project, it's a nice to have, you don't want to waie up to 50k USD of sudden surcharge on resources you don't use.

I can depend on it to work and be there when I need it. It is very intuitive and easy to use and even first time users have little to no issues with it. I can have small or large meetings with it and utilize the functionality i need to depending on the situation

Pros
BetterCloud
  • Allows us to quickly audit and assign delegates to email account, something that's completely missing in Google as an administrative function
  • Allows us to automate offboarding of a Google account
  • Allows us to perform bulk actions, like assigning email signatures and forwarding to hundreds of accounts at a time
  • Allows us to audit Google Drive files. Orphaned files are very common in Google Workspace, and BetterCloud allows us to find them and take ownership of them.

GitGuardian
  • GitGuardian monitors every public or private GitHub commit ( that have GitGuardian installed) and event in real-time for secrets and sensitive data. In a leak scenario it immediately notifies us.
  • It uses sophisticated pattern matching techniques to detect credentials that cannot be strictly defined with a distinctive pattern (like unprefixed credentials)
  • It covers several API providers, database connection strings, private keys, certificates, usernames and passwords etc
  • GitGuardian have high True Positive Rate of around 91% and reduces alert fatigue with smart occurrences regrouping

Cons
BetterCloud
  • Integration with Google in the App version to allow pushing of email signatures, this feature is available in the legacy version.
  • More canned reports, although custom reports are available for you to build yourself.
  • More onsite visits with customers if available, to be onsite and see what challenges are available first hand.

  • Improved user interface: It would be beneficial to have a more intuitive and user-friendly interface for Internal Monitoring on GitGuardian. This would make it easier for users to quickly access the data they need and understand the results of their scans.
  • Automated alerts: It would be helpful to have automated alerts when certain conditions are met, such as when a scan reveals sensitive data or when a new repository is created. This would help users stay informed and take action in a timely manner.
  • More detailed reports: Currently, Internal Monitoring reports are limited in terms of the depth of information they provide. It would be useful to have more detailed reports that include additional metrics, such as the number of repositories scanned and the types of sensitive data found.
  • Faster scan times: Scan times can be slow at times, making it difficult to stay on top of changes in repositories quickly. It would be beneficial to have faster scan times so that users can take action quickly when needed.

Support for BetterCloud is excellent. They have fantastic email support who are very responsive and knowledgeable, but more importantly they have chat support that are absolutely top-notch. They have not only the knowledge to answer and help, but the capability to solve without escalations or runarounds. These support folks are the real deal.

BetterCloud has a much more friendly UI when it comes to building workflows as I've mentioned before. Our team has visited Okta workflows a number of times but it was incredibly difficult to replicate our current BetterCloud workflows into Okta because the Okta UI for workflow building is hard to follow and create

I've evaluated quite a few other tools, like git-secrets, Git-leaks, scan, and maybe a few more. They're all great but quite surprisingly none of them detected Github OAuth Secrets for us. A lot of the FOSS tools out there focus on much simpler, generic secrets, which is good in itself but with GitGuardian, it was dead simple from day one. I just connected our Github Account and set up the gg-shield cli and that was all.

Return on Investment
BetterCloud
  • Data monitoring: previously unavailable insight into our organization’s file-sharing habits and documents.
  • Granular roles: ability to set least-access permissions. And really, truly granular unlike some other applications.
  • Automation: we’ve already saved dozens of man hours using workflows. Gives us time to focus on things that matter without compromising common tasks.

By providing visibility into our code repositories and alerting us to potential security risks, we have been able to identify and mitigate security issues before they become a problem. This has allowed us to focus more on developing our product and less on responding to security incidents. We have also seen an increase in customer confidence in our product as a result of using GitGuardian Internal Monitoring, which has led to increased customer loyalty and retention. Overall, the ROI of using GitGuardian Internal Monitoring has been very positive for our business.
  • We have seen an increase in the security of our codebase, as well as an improvement in the speed and accuracy of our code reviews. This has enabled us to quickly identify and address any potential security issues before they become a problem. Additionally, we have seen an increase in our ROI as a result of using GitGuardian Internal Monitoring, as it has allowed us to save time and money by preventing costly security breaches.
