Secret scanning detects secrets in Actions logs [Public Preview] #1282

Description

@github-product-ops

Value Prop

Secret scanning now detects secrets exposed in GitHub Actions workflow logs, closing a common and high-risk gap in your security coverage. When a token, API key, or credential surfaces in a log, GitHub will automatically open a secret scanning alert with additional information about the finding.

Expected Outcome

Development teams need confidence that their automation pipelines are covered alongside their source code and GitHub surfaces. By extending secret scanning to Actions logs, developers can ship faster without worrying that their pipelines are silently leaking credentials.
