    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.

    Qualys VMDR is best suited for larger companies with a very large IT asset footprint. Qualys VMDR is not suited for businesses that are small and upcoming as the price for the tool is very expensive and could be a budget sink if not used properly. In our organization we use the Qualys VMDR dashboard and reporting in order to collect any vulnerabilities we miss during our routine audits to ensure that our environment is stable and protected for attacks.

    Pros
    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

    • Seamless reporting across the different widgets (i.e. TruRisk)
    • DEEP-DIVE into an asset's info/vulns
    • Baked-in PCI ASV scans that a Qualys QSA can approve

    Cons
    GitGuardian
    • 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.

    • Qualys VMDR can definitely improve on its reporting of assets as we have caught devices not captured in the Qualys VMDR scans.
    • We would like to see an improvement on the dashboard interface as it is faulty sometimes.
    • Qualys VMDR should focus on more competitive pricing as it is very expensive.

    Next to Veeam (which is a tremendous product for backup/DR) this is the best service/software I have used in the past three decades. Should be called the Swiss Army Knife of security.

    This is iron but I am giving it 5 star and I can give more If I can do because they are best in support. So once you own this product they will assign a dedicated support for you and when you are under the weather with anything just connect them with anything call, ping or ticket they will come like Genie.

    Not really - the integrations via connectors is not heavy lifting. Any complexity has to do with a service that requires more steps (i.e. AWS/GCP)

    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.

    It is a very similar tool but Qualys VMDR is much better when it comes to reporting and solutions provided. Asset management is really good in Qualys VMDR. Qualys VMDR support is really quick , you can get a TPM if you run into any issues. Qualys VMDR has wide variety of scanning options which lacks in tenable.

    Outside some pretty arcane apps or OS this is painless. The problem - and self-inflicted - is that older stuff is not supported.
