Show HN: Blacklight – secret scanner for code, databases, drives, and slack

We often ran pattern matching searches for secrets and keys across codebases, databases etc.

Therefore, we thought about converting that workflow into a tool that we could just easily generate a SARIF report and share with our customers.

Blacklight is a powerful secret, key, and sensitive data scanning tool that helps you detect and prevent sensitive information leaks in your codebase, databases, cloud storage, and communication platforms.

The idea is that one can add their custom rules around their governance and compliance requirements. The platform comes with 114 matching criteria, but this can be extended easily.
