+Each of the secret checks are developed as plugins in the [detect_secrets/plugins](/tree/master/detect_secrets/plugins) directory. Each plugin represents a single test or a group of tests.
 
-The current heuristic searches we implement out of the box include:
-
-* **Base64HighEntropyString**: checks for all strings matching the Base64 character set, and alerts if their Shannon entropy is above a certain limit.
-
-* **HexHighEntropyString**: checks for all strings matching the Hex character set, and alerts if their Shannon entropy is above a certain limit.
-
-* **PrivateKeyDetector**: checks to see if any private keys are committed.
-
-* **BasicAuthDetector**: checks to see if BasicAuth is used e.g. `https://username:password@example.com`
-
-* **KeywordDetector**: checks to see if certain keywords are being used e.g. `password` or `secret`
-
-* **ArtifactoryDetector**: checks to see if Artifactory credentials are present.
-
-* **GheDetector**: checks to see if GitHub credentials are present.
