Recall Secrets-In-Code Scanning: Real-Time Protection Against Leaked Credentials

The harder truth: most breaches start this way. Secrets slip into repositories—API keys, credentials, tokens—buried deep in commits. Conventional scanning misses them because code changes move faster than reactive audits. Recall Secrets-In-Code scanning flips the process. It hunts in real time, tracing every change against known secret patterns before they hit production.

Recall scanning uses deterministic and pattern-based detection. It covers plain text leaks and secrets hidden in encoded or obfuscated formats. This isn’t just grep or regex. Strong detection chains run against commit diffs, metadata, and even historical branches to ensure no hidden key escapes. Code scanning detects AWS keys, database passwords, JWTs, OAuth tokens, and custom-defined secrets, all without slowing deployments.

The power here is speed and precision. Secrets found mid-commit are blocked instantly. Engineers get targeted alerts with exact file, line number, and commit hash. Managers see clear reports for compliance tracking. The system integrates with CI/CD pipelines, hooks into Git providers, and logs events for audit trails. Recall scanning is built to scale—millions of lines of code, thousands of repositories, continuous monitoring with zero manual sweeps.

Security teams know the damage exposed secrets cause: vendor access compromised, services abused, regulatory violations. Inline, automated scanning stops this upstream. With Recall Secrets-In-Code scanning, the difference is measured in minutes, not weeks. No backlog of false positives, no security debt piling up.

Secrets don’t wait. Neither should you.
