Zach Rice

  • I'm a (new) dad, husband, and programmer. I like working with small, ambitious teams who tackle big problems.
  • I grew up in Champaign, IL.
  • Secret Detection is my niche. I founded Gitleaks LLC (2022-2023) and maintain Gitleaks, a secret detection tool. In my day job, I help maintain TruffleHog for Truffle Security.
  • I currently live in the Chicagoland area.
