Secret Detection is a security testing practice that scans code repositories for exposed credentials, API keys, tokens, and other sensitive information. Detecting and addressing exposed secrets early helps prevent unauthorized access and security breaches.

With Harness Security Testing Orchestration (STO), you can perform Secret Detection using **[Gitleaks](/docs/security-testing-orchestration/sto-techref-category/gitleaks-scanner-reference)**, which is the only scanner currently supported for this scan type. STO applies its security orchestration features, such as results normalization, deduplication, and formatting findings into actionable insights.

Gitleaks is not the only one. We bucket Gitleaks under secret detection as its estially just 1 secret scanner.
But other SAST and SCA scanners also perform secret detection like semgrep, wiz, etc.
