GitHub Secret Scanning - Deep Dive
Inspect secret-scanning findings and investigate active credentials. GitHub rather than gitleaks; entitlement varies; clean scan not proof of absence; exposed credentials need rotation.
About this selection
T12-L04: Watch 4:50–16:00 for enabling secret scanning, inspecting findings and checking credential activity; 19:32 adds push protection. GitHub features differ from the book's local gitleaks route and depend on entitlement. A clean scan proves neither absence nor remediation; revoke or rotate exposed credentials.
