I created Sharesecret (https://sharesecret.co) to protect against exactly these kinds of attacks.

Most company Slacks are a ticking timebomb of sensitive artifacts waiting to be discovered. Whether it's passwords or just general internal info you wouldn't want to be public, it's wild how much sensitive info is sitting in like 4 systems (Slack, Gmail, Notion, Dropbox).

Protect y'selves people.

A proprietary security product. That's always funny.

An Open-source and self-hosted version of what this service seems to be doing.

In addition to basic secret sharing, Sharesecret has a slack extension that detects different types of potentially sensitive data and alerts the sender to redact and encrypt to get it out of Slack. We also have an auto-destructing private chat feature.

What's funny about it?
