Secret protection must scale with software

Developers aren’t becoming more careless; they’re being outpaced. The tools that let developers create more software should also take on more of the work of protecting it.

Nauti's Take
For small teams, the first test is whether protection works inside the development workflow: while code is written, at commit time, and in CI, with actionable alerts instead of more noise. Before rolling it out, verify which secret types are detected, how false positives are handled, and whether sensitive data is sent to external services.
