We’re Excited to Announce Our Partnership with Truffle Security
We’re thrilled to partner with Truffle Security to bring TruffleHog’s secret scanning features to our platform. This integration will help us to identify and verify secret leaks in code, ensuring a more secure environment for our users.
TruffleHog: A Powerful Secret Scanning Tool
TruffleHog is an open-source tool that detects and verifies secret leaks in code. With its wide range of detectors for popular SaaS and cloud providers, it scans files and repositories for sensitive information like credentials, tokens, and encryption keys.
Enhancing Our Automated Scanning Pipeline with TruffleHog
At Hugging Face, we’re committed to protecting our users’ sensitive information. To achieve this goal, we’ve extended our automated scanning pipeline to include TruffleHog. We run the trufflehog filesystem command on every new or modified file on each push to a repository, scanning for potential secrets. If and when a verified secret is detected, we notify the user via email, empowering them to take corrective action.
TruffleHog Native Hugging Face Scanner
The goal for creating a native Hugging Face scanner in TruffleHog is to empower our users (and the security teams protecting them) to proactively scan their own account data for leaked secrets. TruffleHog’s new open-source Hugging Face integration can scan models, datasets, and Spaces, as well as any relevant PRs or Discussions.
