️ KeySentry v2 — Stop API Key Leaks Before They Stop You

Summary

• KeySentry is a security scanner detecting leaked API keys, tokens and sensitive files in GitHub repositories or local projects.
• Designed for speed, accuracy and simplicity, it is a dual-mode scanner offering a command-line scanner for direct scanning of GitHub repos or local directories, and a frontend web scanner for scanning GitHub URLs.
• Before attackers can find your secrets, KeySentry flags them, acting as an early warning system.
• The tool was built by Aditya Bhatt, who stresses that secrets, such as AWS credentials, Slack tokens and Firebase config files, are the lifeblood of modern applications, and leaks can cause “massive breaches, financial losses and reputation damage”.
• The live frontend scanner can be found at https://key-sentry.netlify.app/, and the GitHub repo at https://github.com/AdityaBhatt3010/KeySentry.
