GitGuardian Can Now Monitor Your Gerrit Repositories To Help You Fight Secrets Sprawl
In this video, Romain Jouhannet, Product Manager at GitGuardian, talks with Dwayne McDaniel, Developer Advocate at GitGuardian about the platform's new native support for Gerrit as a VCS source.
Gerrit is widely used for enterprise code review workflows, often hosting sensitive internal repositories. You can now connect your Gerrit instance to GitGuardian to detect secrets exposed across your repositories and commit histories, with the same experience as our other VCS integrations.
What does this mean for you?
Historical scanning out of the box: GitGuardian performs a full scan of your repositories' commit history as soon as you connect your Gerrit instance, uncovering secrets that may have been exposed weeks, months, or years ago.
Real-time detection with the webhook plugin: Install the Gerrit webhook plugin to catch new exposures the moment commits are pushed.
Granular perimeter control: Choose exactly which repositories to monitor, and apply team-based access control just like with other VCS sources.
Read replica support: Point GitGuardian to a read replica for cloning operations to reduce load on your primary Gerrit server.
