SonarLint, a free and open source IDE extension from SonarSource, recently announced a new feature for its software that aims to help developers identify and prevent leaks of AWS user or system-level authentication credentials before they are committed to a repository and leaked from user’s local source code or files.

Sonar Lint protects AWS authentication credentials and Amazon Web Service (MWS) credentials from leaking publicly.”]
