GitGuardian, the global leader in non-human identity cybersecurity, has entered the Saudi Arabian market by completing a 12-day strategic immersion under Business France’s Booster Grow Global program.
Founded in 2017, GitGuardian is recognized as a breakthrough innovator, aligned with the France 2030 initiative, and is trusted by over 600,000 developers and companies worldwide to secure the identities of machines and the secrets they hold (API keys, credentials, etc.) in today’s cloud-driven and AI-powered environments.
GitGuardian’s selection as a laureate of Booster Grow Global KSA 2025 aligns perfectly with these national priorities. The company’s all-in-one NHI security platform directly addresses emerging risks in Saudi Arabia’s digital landscape. By offering a solution to secure automated accounts and detect leaked secrets, GitGuardian arrives with a clear mandate: to help fortify Saudi Arabia’s digital transformation initiatives (smart cities, e-government services, industrial digitization) against the latest cyber threats.
“As Saudi Arabia accelerates its digital transformation and invests in smart infrastructure, we are excited to partner with local innovators and enterprises to help secure this next era of growth,” said Eric Fourrier, CEO of GitGuardian.
GitGuardian is bringing to Saudi Arabia a unique technology that sets it apart in the cybersecurity arena. It is currently the only platform offering truly end-to-end security for Non-Human Identities essentially, the accounts and credentials used by applications, automation tools, cloud services, and other machine agents. The platform’s capabilities span from advanced secrets detection (finding hard-coded passwords, API keys, tokens, and other sensitive data hidden in code repositories, configuration files, or logs) to full lifecycle governance of machine identities (tracking which services have access to what, rotating or revoking credentials, and enforcing policies across CI/CD pipelines and cloud infrastructure).
Built for modern DevOps and cloud-native environments, GitGuardian integrates seamlessly into developers’ workflows. This developer-first approach means security is embedded without slowing down innovation: developers receive instant alerts and guided remediation steps when a secret is exposed, enabling fixes within minutes. Powered by artificial intelligence, GitGuardian delivers highly accurate detection, and the benefits are tangible: companies resolve secret-related incidents up to 60 times faster.
By securing the surge of machine identities and secrets that accompany digital transformation, GitGuardian’s platform empowers Saudi businesses and government entities to innovate safely and sustainably. Now, GitGuardian is poised to help shape the future of cybersecurity in the Kingdom, working hand-in-hand with local partners and stakeholders to address Saudi Arabia’s priorities in protecting data and digital assets.
