In practice exam Advanced Security, question 17

”Who will be notified when a NEW secret is pushed and detected in a repository? “

(https://github.com/FidelusAleksander/ghcertified/blob/master/content/questions/advanced_security/question-017.md)

the answer “Commit authors” should be included since incremental scans notify them. See:

Note

Commit authors who've accidentally committed secrets will be notified, regardless of their notification preferences.

Reference:

https://docs.github.com/en/code-security/secret-scanning/managing-alerts-from-secret-scanning/monitoring-alerts#incremental-scans

BTW the link provided in the question is incorrect, the correct is the one above.
