Truffle Security
Truffle Security Co. is an open-source security software company founded in 2021 and backed by a16z. It builds TruffleHog, the widely adopted secrets-scanning engine that detects, verifies, and helps remediate leaked credentials across source code, git history, container images, cloud storage, SaaS tools, and CI/CD pipelines. TruffleHog classifies 800+ credential types, actively verifies whether a found secret is live, and ships as a Go CLI (open source, AGPL-3.0) plus a commercial TruffleHog Enterprise platform with continuous monitoring, 20+ integrations (GitHub, GitLab, Confluence, Jira, Slack, SharePoint, GCP, and more), a triage dashboard, and a v3 Enterprise API. Products include TruffleHog open source, TruffleHog Enterprise, Analyze, and Forager.
More than an index entry, but the surface is still mostly links rather than artifacts — the cohort most likely to move a full band from modest, well-targeted work.
API Evangelist profiles Truffle Security the way a machine reads it — 2 machine-readable artifacts, pulled from the provider's own public surface and indexed so a developer, an analyst, or an AI agent can evaluate it against every other provider on the network.
Every provider in the network is reduced to the same set of machine-readable artifacts — OpenAPI contracts, event specifications, GraphQL schemas, runnable collections, pricing and rate-limit signals, security posture, OAuth scopes, and the agent surfaces (MCP servers and skills) that let software drive the API on its own. We profile them because the interface is the part of a company you can actually inspect: it is a truer signal of what a provider does than any marketing page. From those artifacts we compute the Kin Score — Truffle Security scores 29.2/100 (emerging), with a separate agent-readiness read of 10/100 (human only). The full breakdown is below, followed by every artifact we hold — each card links through to its machine-readable definition on apis.io.
Kin Score
This is the API Evangelist rating — a single, repeatable read computed from the artifacts on this page. Green fill is points earned; the red track is points possible, so every bar shows earned-versus-possible at a glance.

How we profile Truffle Security
Each block below is one kind of artifact we hold for Truffle Security. For each we say what it is and why it earns a place in the profile, then list every one we've indexed — capped at two rows, scroll within the panel for the rest.
Event Specifications 1
Not every API is request/response. AsyncAPI describes the event-driven and streaming side — the webhooks and channels — so the asynchronous half of the interface is documented the same way the synchronous half is.
AsyncAPI definitions for this provider's event-driven and streaming APIs.

ASYNCAPISecurity Posture 1
Authentication, domain security, vulnerability disclosure, and trust-center signals — the evidence that a provider takes security seriously enough to document it. We profile it because you can't govern what you can't see.
