GitHub Advanced Security has introduced significant updates to enhance application security management for organizations and teams. The beta release of a new security overview provides a high-level view of application security risks, allowing administrators to see which GitHub security features are enabled and the risks detected by tools like code scanning, Dependabot, and secret scanning. This overview assigns risk categories to repositories based on the number and severity of active alerts, enabling users to filter and focus on specific repositories of interest. Additionally, secret scanning for private repositories is now generally available, having expanded its pattern coverage to include tokens from over 35 partners and introduced features like API and webhook alerts, sending notifications to commit authors. These updates aim to help organizations manage security risks more effectively by providing insights and tools for developers and managers to quickly address vulnerabilities, and further improvements are planned to enhance secret scanning capabilities.
