Cloud Data Loss Prevention (DLP) V2 API - Class Google::Cloud::Dlp::V2::SecretsDiscoveryTarget (v1.16.1)

Reference documentation and code samples for the Cloud Data Loss Prevention (DLP) V2 API class Google::Cloud::Dlp::V2::SecretsDiscoveryTarget.

Discovery target for credentials and secrets in cloud resource metadata.

This target does not include any filtering or frequency controls. Cloud DLP will scan cloud resource metadata for secrets daily.

No inspect template should be included in the discovery config for a security benchmarks scan. Instead, the built-in list of secrets and credentials infoTypes will be used (see https://cloud.google.com/sensitive-data-protection/docs/infotypes-reference#credentials_and_secrets).

Credentials and secrets discovered will be reported as vulnerabilities to Security Command Center.
