Prevent PII Leaks Before Deployment with Final Privacy Checks in Your CI Pipeline

Automated CI Configurations

For organizations with thousands of code repositories that prefer running scans within their own CI workflows (where Managed Scans is not an option), configuring CI across so many codebases could take months of engineering effort. With HoundDog.ai, it becomes a five minute task.

The HoundDog.ai Cloud Platform integrates directly with your source management platform (including GitHub, GitLab, and Bitbucket, both cloud and enterprise editions) and automatically pushes CI configurations (as direct commits or PRs requiring approval) tailored to your needs. These configurations support deep customization of scan frequency, PR blocking logic, developer facing feedback through actionable comments in pull requests, and the option to use cloud hosted or self hosted runners.

Integrations Supporting Most CI Pipelines

HoundDog.ai’s static code scanner prevents PII leaks at every stage of development. It starts with IDE plug-ins that highlight PII leaks as developers write code, includes Managed Scans for customers who want to offload daily or weekly repository scans, and seamlessly integrates with CI/CD pipelines for final security checks before deployment.

 

By integrating the scanner into your CI pipeline, you can run continuous scans before code is merged into the main branch. For detailed setup instructions, refer to the CI/CD Integrations section in our documentation.

 

Most organizations begin with a manual CLI-based scan of their most critical repositories to establish a baseline and prioritize urgent PII risks. They then progress toward continuous security coverage through IDE plug-ins, Managed Scans, and CI/CD integrations.
