Secret protection must scale with software: <2ms classifier

As AI agents increasingly influence GitHub pull requests, secret protection must evolve rapidly.

Currently, one in three pull requests on GitHub involves an AI agent, a significant increase from a year ago. If this trend continues, most code pushed to GitHub could be AI-generated within two years. This acceleration necessitates that protection measures keep pace, preventing leaks and reducing manual response efforts. A new classifier developed with Microsoft can assess candidate secrets in under two milliseconds, potentially doubling the effectiveness of secret protection.
