GShark is a self-hosted sensitive information detection and management platform that scans repositories exposed by providers like GitHub, GitLab, Sourcegraph, and Postman. It pairs a Go/Gin backend with a Vue 3 web interface for rule management, whitelisting, and result triage.

Use cases

  • scan github for leaked secrets and credentials
  • detect sensitive information exposed in gitlab repositories
  • monitor postman workspaces for leaked api keys
  • manage custom scanning rules with whitelist and blacklist filtering
  • enumerate subdomains of a target organization
  • self-host a secret leak detection platform with docker

When to choose

  • you need continuous scanning of remote code hosting platforms for leaked secrets
  • you want a web UI with access control to triage leak findings
  • you need multi-provider coverage including GitHub, GitLab, Sourcegraph, and Postman

When to avoid

  • you only need to scan local source trees rather than remote repositories
  • you want a lightweight one-shot CLI scanner without a server or database
  • you need commercial-grade secret detection with verification and revocation workflows
