While not a new feature, the GitGuardian team has been hard at work making updates to our TokenScanner, the underlying engine that powers GitGuardian's secret scanning ability. This is great news for folks dealing with very large repos and legacy platforms that thousands of developers have touched over the years. Scanning millions of files, attachments, commits, and anywhere else secrets might be hiding takes minutes. Historical scans across petabytes of information, which used to take days, now take less than an hour. What used to take hours takes a few short minutes.
