Hi Product Hunt community! 👋
I'm Khalid Hani, the maker behind Crenox. I’m super excited to finally share this project with you all!
Like many of you, I’ve experienced that sinking feeling of accidentally committing a sensitive API key or credentials to a repository. I built Crenox because I wanted a secret scanner that fits seamlessly into a developer's workflow—something lightning-fast (written in Go), lightweight (~11MB RAM), and smart enough to understand code context to actually reduce noise (fewer false positives).
Whether you're a seasoned DevSecOps pro or just looking to secure your personal projects, I designed Crenox to keep your pipelines green and your secrets safe without slowing you down.
I'm incredibly grateful for the support so far, and I’d love to hear your thoughts! What’s your biggest frustration with current secret scanning workflows? Any features you'd love to see? Let me know in the comments—I'm all ears! 🚀
Thanks for checking it out!
