Methodology

1. Project Discovery

Scraped all 378 project submissions from the TreeHacks 2026 Devpost page. Extracted GitHub repository links from each project listing.

2. Repository Cloning

Cloned all public GitHub repositories. 55 projects had no GitHub link, 25 were private, and 3 failed to clone (timeout).

3. Secret Scanning

Ran regex-based secret detection across all cloned repos, scanning for API keys, database URIs, private keys, tokens, and other credential patterns.

4. Redaction & Reporting

All detected secrets were immediately redacted. Only the first 4 and last 4 characters are shown. No credentials were tested, stored, or shared in plain text.

Responsible Disclosure

This research was conducted for educational purposes. All secrets are redacted in this report. If you find your project listed and want to rotate your credentials, check out the GitHub Secret Scanning docs. If you'd like your project removed from this report, please reach out.
