Exciting News! Puaro is now part of the Google AI Startups Program

SECRET SCANNING

Secret scanning capabilities for modern teams

Find leaked API keys, tokens, and passwords in pull requests, merge requests, pushes, full repository scans, and historical commits. Connect GitHub or GitLab for context-aware findings with severity and a plain-English explanation.

CAPABILITIES

Everything you need for secret scanning

Outcomes first: less noise, safer merges, shared org workspaces, and policies you control.

Catch real secrets, not noise

AI Context Engine

The AI Context Engine reads surrounding code so you get actionable credentials, not endless false alarms from fixtures and docs.

Scan new changes

PR / MR / push scanning

Pull requests and merge requests get feedback during review. Push scanning covers commits that land outside a review.

Block or warn on your terms

Configurable policies

Choose block, warn, or notify policies per workflow so security protects the pipeline without grinding delivery to a halt.

Prioritize what matters

Intelligent ranking

Risk ranking surfaces the findings that are most likely to be real and exploitable, so teams fix the right things first.

Organizations for your team

Available now

Create organizations, invite members, and share policies in one workspace: personal and team contexts already ship today.

Scan repositories and git history

Full repository and historical commit scans

Scan the current repository tree and historical commits, including credentials deleted from a branch but still present in git history.

IN THE PR

Findings where developers already work

Status checks and inline context on the pull request, not a separate console hop for every alert.

HOW IT WORKS

From integration to code security

See how Puaro fits into your codebase to catch real secrets before they reach production.

Integrate

Zero-Infrastructure Setup

Connect Puaro to your development workflow in minutes with no infrastructure setup required. Scanning and configuration run on Puaro's cloud, not on your servers.

GitLab Integration
Slack Alerts
Cloud-Hosted Infrastructure

Full provider detail: Integrations.

Scan

Flexible Repository Scanning

Run a full repository scan of the current tree, or scan historical commits for secrets no longer present on the branch. Both run on Puaro's cloud infrastructure.

Frequently Asked Questions

Scan coverage, remediation, organizations, integrations, and data handling.

Does Puaro provide pull request secret scanning?Question 1
Yes. Puaro scans PRs/MRs in real time with AI-powered secret detection to block or warn before merge.
Can Puaro scan pushes, full repositories, and git history?Question 2
Yes. Puaro scans pushes and supports full repository scans of the current tree and historical commit scans. Historical scans find credentials that were removed from the current branch but remain in past commits. Findings appear in the dashboard with severity and a plain-English explanation.
How do we remediate current and historical findings?Question 3
For a finding in current code, use Open fix PR on GitHub or Open fix MR on GitLab. Rotate exposed credentials as well. For a historical finding no longer in the current tree, rotate the credential and mark the finding as rotated; a code-edit fix does not remove it from git history.
Can we create Organizations for our team?Question 4
Yes. Organizations are available now: create an org, invite members, and share policies in a team workspace. Free plan includes 1 organization (see pricing for guardrails).
Which integrations are supported?Question 5
GitHub and GitLab are live, plus Slack, email, and webhooks. Bitbucket and Microsoft Teams alerts are planned. See the Integrations page for status detail.
Do you retain code after scanning?Question 6
Source code is not kept after scanning by default. Finding metadata may be stored so you can review and remediate results in the dashboard.
