16. A computer-implemented method, the method comprising:
accessing a request to execute a sensitive data scanning operation on an instance of in-development code, wherein the instance of in-development code is on-boarded for sensitive data scanning, the sensitive data scanning operation executable via a sensitive data leak-detection engine that provides code security management services, the sensitive data leak-detection engine is integrated into a unit testing feature of a software development environment;
accessing a code scanning package, wherein the code scanning package comprises software development environment code scanning parameters;
based on the software development environment code scanning parameters, scanning the instance of in-development code for sensitive data, wherein scanning the instance of in-development code comprises the unit testing feature executing a call to the code scanning package based on a code scanning package reference-code added to the instance of in-development code;
generating a notification comprising a sensitive data scan result associated with the in-development code; and
communicating the notification.
