"GitGuardian's platform centers on identifying and handling secrets across development workflows, with deployment options in SaaS or self-hosted formats to fit various organizational needs. It features scanning capabilities for code repositories, software supply chains and public sources to detect over 550 types of secrets, alongside monitoring for potential leaks and the use of honeytokens (decoy credentials) as a defensive measure against intruders."
"The Series C round comes amid growing concerns over unmanaged machine identities and credentials in enterprise environments, particularly as AI adoption accelerates the creation of autonomous agents. The funding was led by Insight Partners, with participation from Quadrille Capital, Balderton, BPI, Eurazeo, Fly Ventures and Sapphire Ventures. This brings GitGuardian's total funding to $106 million."
""The market has reached a critical inflection point. Organizations that once managed hundreds of service accounts will now face thousands of autonomous AI agents, each requiring secure credentials," said Eric Fourrier, CEO and co-founder of GitGuardian."
