Abstract
We introduce a new challenge to the software development community: 1) leveraging AI to accurately detect and flag up secrets in code and on popular document sharing platforms that frequently used by developers, such as Confluence and 2) automatically remediating the detections (e.g. by suggesting password vault functionality). This is a challenging, and mostly unaddressed task. Existing methods leverage heuristics and regular expressions, that can be very noisy, and therefore increase toil on developers. The next step - modifying code itself - to automatically remediate a detection, is a complex task. We introduce two baseline AI models that have good detection performance and propose an automatic mechanism for remediating secrets found in code, opening up the study of this task to the wider community.
