Cybersecurity

Your GitHub organisation is where your source code, secrets, and CI/CD pipelines live — is it secured?

We audit your GitHub organisation for exposed secrets, misconfigured branch protections, excessive permissions, and GitHub Actions vulnerabilities that could compromise your codebase.

Get Free GitHub Security Assessment

The challenges you're facing

API keys and credentials accidentally committed to repositories — even private ones get breached or leaked

No branch protection on main — anyone with write access can push directly to production code

GitHub Actions workflows with excessive permissions creating supply chain compromise vectors

End-to-End GitHub Security Review and Hardening

We audit your GitHub organisation configuration, repository security settings, member access and permissions, branch protection rules, GitHub Actions workflow security, secret scanning enablement, and integration permissions. We also scan your repository history for leaked secrets using specialised tools, regardless of whether they were later deleted (deleted commits are still recoverable).

What you get

Organisation Configuration Audit

Review org-level security settings, member privileges, outside collaborators, and SSO/SCIM configuration.

Repository Access & Branch Protection Review

Audit per-repository access, branch protection rules on critical branches, and code owner requirements.

Secret Scanning & History Review

Scan all repositories for exposed secrets including historical commits using TruffleHog and GitHub Secret Scanning.

Actions Security Review

Audit GitHub Actions workflows for privilege escalation, third-party action pinning, and secrets handling.

Case study — anonymised

SaaS Company — 40 engineers

Before

GitHub organisation with 200+ repositories. No branch protection on main in 120 repos. Secret scanning disabled. 3 outside collaborators with admin access that had left the company.

After

Branch protection enforced across all repos, stale access revoked, 23 leaked secrets (12 still-valid API keys) rotated, Actions pinned to SHA hashes.

23 valid secrets rotated before exploitation, 3 former employee accounts removed, Actions supply chain risk reduced significantly

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions from enterprise and mid-market teams across India and internationally.

Can you find secrets that were committed and then deleted?

Yes. Git commit history is permanent — deleting a file doesn't remove it from git history. We use tools like TruffleHog and Gitleaks to scan the complete commit history, including deleted files and branches. Any secret ever committed to your repository should be considered compromised and must be rotated.

What are GitHub Actions security risks?

GitHub Actions can be exploited through: using third-party actions from untrusted sources (supply chain attack), actions with write permissions to secrets that can be exfiltrated, pull request triggers on public repos that can be used to exfiltrate secrets, and overly-broad repository permissions granted to GITHUB_TOKEN.

Do you need admin access to audit our GitHub organisation?

We need organisation owner access to audit org-level settings and use the GitHub API. For secret scanning history, we need repository admin access. We document exactly what access we use, and you can revoke it immediately after the engagement.

What is OSSF Scorecard and how does it relate to GitHub security?

The Open Source Security Foundation (OSSF) Scorecard is a framework that scores repositories on security practices: branch protection, dependency pinning, code review requirements, vulnerability disclosure, and more. We use Scorecard as one benchmark in our review and provide your scores with improvement recommendations.
