Audit Checklist

1. Secrets Exposure

Check for hardcoded secrets:

# Search for common secret patterns
grep -rn "API_KEY\|SECRET\|TOKEN\|PASSWORD" --include="*.{js,ts,py,go,rb,java}" .
grep -rn "sk-\|pk_\|api_\|secret_" --include="*.{js,ts,py,go,rb,java}" .

Verify .gitignore:

# Ensure sensitive files are ignored
cat .gitignore | grep -E "\.env|secret|credential|\.pem|\.key"
