Legitify | Open Source Security Tool from Legit Security

Are Your SCM Implementations Secure?

It’s difficult and time-consuming to consistently enforce security across large GitHub/GitLab source code management (SCM) systems, and misconfigurations are a very common source of vulnerabilities. Different individuals often deploy GitHub/GitLab instances with different configurations and settings. However, manually enforcing consistency across large GitHub/GitLab organizations is very labor-intensive and prone to human error.

Auto-Discover Insecure Configurations

Legitify is an open-source GitHub/GitLab configuration scanner from Legit Security that helps security teams and DevOps engineers manage and enforce their SCM configurations in a secure and scalable way. Legitify automatically detects security issues, provides remediation steps to address them, and represents a subset of capabilities in the commercially licensed Legit Security Platform.
Here's how Legitify works:

1. Connect Easily

Legitify connects to GitHub and GitLab via an access token and detects issues across various resource types: member, repository, actions, organization, and more. Legitify provides the option to scan by specific GitHub/GitLab instance and/or resource type, or to scan an entire GitHub organization, or GitLab group, across all resource types.

2. Scan Quickly

Legitify rapidly scans your GitHub implementations via the command line to detect a wide range of security issues associated with GitHub configurations and settings. Use Legitify across an entire GitHub organization of any size.

3. Detect Security Issues

Any security issue detected is listed in the results, including the name of the issue with a brief description and severity categorization. Threat examples and remediation steps are also provided along with the entityID of the violation.

4. Obtain Security Scores

Legitify is integrated with OSSF Scorecard so you can run Scorecard within Legitify to assess the security posture of repositories using the Security Scorecard framework.
