New in ggshield 1.51: Codex Hooks, MCP Discovery, and SLSA Provenance
ggshield 1.51 is here with better support for AI-powered development and browser-less environments. This release adds Codex hook support, MCP server detection across Claude and Cursor, and `ggshield auth login --method oob` for SSH sessions and headless servers. It also strengthens trust in the ggshield supply chain with GitHub Artifact Attestations for release binaries, improves plugin management through your authenticated GitGuardian instance, adds a `vscode` alias for Copilot hook installation, and shows workspace ID in `ggshield api-status`.
GitGuardian Just Gave AI Coding Agents Secret Detection Skills
AI coding assistants like Claude Code and Cursor are helping developers write more code faster, but that also means more chances for secrets to slip into prompts, files, commits, and tool outputs. GitGuardian’s new open-source **agent-skills** repository teaches AI agents how to use **ggshield** directly inside the developer workflow: when to scan, how to read findings, and how to guide remediation for leaked credentials.
BSides312 2026: Security Basics Under New Pressure
In an AI-assisted development era, the third edition of BSides312 showed why trust, identity, access, evidence, and community remain core to security work.
Grafana and GitHub Breached: The Risk When Private Code Leaks
Code from GitHub and Grafana is in criminal hands. Secrets buried inside could open doors no one is thinking of protecting yet, and AI will make hunting 0-days in that private code faster than ever.
Leaked Kubernetes Secrets: Impact Assessment and Mitigation Strategies
A single leaked Kubernetes credential rarely stays in the cluster. It opens the registry credentials, private Docker images, and private GitHub repositories behind it. In Q1 2026 alone, our detectors caught close to 2,000 new such leaks on GitHub, 28% valid at leak time.
An inside look at finding Leaked CISA AWS GovCloud Admin Keys on Github
In this interview, GitGuardian security researcher Guillaume Valadon breaks down how GitGuardian discovered a public GitHub repository exposing CISA-related secrets, including plain-text passwords, AWS tokens, SAML certificates, CI/CD files, Kubernetes manifests, and internal operational documentation. We discuss how the leak was identified, why exposed secrets can create immediate risk, and how GitGuardian helped escalate the disclosure until the repository was taken offline within 26 hours.
Malware is created by criminals
"Malware is created by criminals. They are intending to cause harm. It is not hypothetical. They want you to consume it for nefarious purposes.".
