[Help Needed] Securing Customized Gitleaks and Backend Communication?
I work in IT and we're enhancing our 'Shift Left Security' approach to prevent sensitive data leaks in our GitHub repositories. We've customized Gitleaks to send git-related information (like remote repository, author details, commit hash etc.) to our backend after each commit. This setup helps us monitor Gitleaks usage among our developers. (gitleaks)

My boss keeps committing his creds into git
To add my anecdote, testing out Trufflehog versus Gitleaks and detect-secrets the other tools seemed superior on detection rate and easier to work with.

Tools for very basic security audits
Some tools to consider: Gitleaks - open-source secret scanner for git repositories, files, and directories. Retire.js - dependency check tool for client JS code. Censys - It’s a search engine that you can use, for example, to scan any IP address and check open ports, software versions, location of the servers, etc. If you want to check more tools, you can download this free ebook with a list of recommended security tools: https://brightinventions.pl/blog/app-security-free-ebook/ The listed tools are free or offer free trials.

Someone has access to my private repos = I lost 140k
I GET IT I need to follow best practice and not upload any sensitive information, even if its a private repo. But through my 10 yeras of coding it happened twice. However these keys only lived in 2 areas: my laptop and GITHUB. My laptop is pretty secured, and the timing of the above events just make me really think someone internally at Github is running https://github.com/gitleaks/gitleaks on private repos he / she has access to.

CMV: The Second Amendment "right to bear arms" and the discussions surrounding gun control also apply to hacking tools.
I once had to give a presentation about Metasploit, and whether it was ethically correct for the creator to make it free and open-source, available to everyone. And in researching this I realized that there were a lot of parallels between the arguments for or against hacking tools being readily available and the arguments for or against gun control. I'll just list a few quickly:

-
Penetration Testing
This phase is where the pen testers practically prove that there exist potential vulnerabilities in the target system. The pen testers do the hacking using an array of technical approaches and social engineering methods to exploit the vulnerabilities. The ethical hackers commonly use Metasploit framework to automatically execute exploitation against the target systems. Moreover, they may install malwares such as rootkit to persistently maintain their foothold and further compromise the target system.
