About this project

SecretSentry.ai is an AI-powered security scanning tool that analyzes your code repositories for hardcoded secrets, API keys, passwords, and sensitive credentials before they get exposed. Simply upload your project as a ZIP file, and our NVIDIA NIM agent autonomously reads through your source files, .env configs, and scripts to detect hidden vulnerabilities — giving you a scored security report with exact file locations and remediation steps. Think of it as a smart code auditor that works in seconds, helping developers catch dangerous leaks before they reach production or get pushed to GitHub.
