Question
Secret scanning will scan:
- A. a continuous integration system.
- B. the GitHub repository. Correct
- C. any Git repository.
- D. external services.
Explanation
Secret scanning scans the entire Git history on all branches of your GitHub repository, along with content such as issues, pull requests and discussions. It works on repositories hosted on GitHub, not on any Git repository wherever it is hosted. It does not scan continuous integration systems. External services are what leaked secrets can give access to, and a partnered provider may be notified about a leak, but those services are not scanned.
