01Overview

What this engagement delivers

Codebases that have never been scanned frequently contain a live credential somewhere in their history, and deleting the file does not remove it from past commits. We scan the full history of your repositories, check which secrets are still valid and help you rotate them in a safe order. We also address dependency hygiene, identifying outdated packages with known vulnerabilities, setting out a manageable upgrade path and adding automated scanning so future issues are caught at the pull request.
