Highnote is now a GitHub secret scanning partner

GitHub secret scanning protects users by searching repositories for known types of secrets. By identifying and flagging these secrets, our scans help prevent data leaks and fraud.

We have partnered with Highnote to scan for their tokens and help secure our mutual users on public repositories. Highnote tokens allow users to authenticate with Highnote’s GraphQL API. GitHub will forward access tokens found in public repositories to Highnote, which will then revoke the token and work with impacted users to generate a new token. You can read more information about Highnote’s tokens here.

GitHub Advanced Security customers can also scan for Highnote tokens and block them from entering their private repositories. All users can enable push protection for public repositories, for free.
