Protect your code from
leaked credentials
Puaro is an AI-powered secret scanner for source code. It detects leaked API keys, tokens, and passwords in source code before merge, using context-aware analysis - not regex alone - to cut false positives to roughly 2–5% (see methodology).
AI-Powered Secret Detection
Watch Puaro's AI Context Engine identify secrets in real-time with context-aware analysis and detailed remediation guidance.

AI context vs regex-only scanning
Regex tools find candidates fast. Puaro classifies which ones matter before merge. See Why Puaro for the full comparison, or read the benchmark report.
| Dimension | Puaro | Typical regex scanner |
|---|---|---|
| Detection method | AI context + 2,000+ patterns | Regex / entropy rules only |
| Typical false positives | ~2-5% in internal tests* | Often 20-40% without tuning |
| Setup | OAuth SaaS, ~5 minutes | CLI / CI config + allowlists |
| PR integration | Native GitHub App check runs | Pre-commit hooks or CI output |

Regex Finds Candidates. AI Decides What's Noise.
We ran Gitleaks, TruffleHog, GitGuardian, and Puaro on four open-source repos. Puaro's AI suppressed 334 candidate findings and left 33 real alerts for humans.

Source Code Secret Leaks Cost $5.47 Million Per Incident: Here Is the Breakdown
When developers leave live API keys, AWS tokens, or database credentials in a repository, attackers do not need to break in: they log in. Industry estimates put the average cost of a single secret leak at $5.47 million in 2026. Here is where that money goes.

A Machine Broke Into the Cloud With No Human at the Keyboard
Security researchers at Unit 42 built a system called Zealot that broke into cloud infrastructure from start to finish without anyone typing a command. What it did, entirely on its own, should change how teams treat "low priority" findings.
