How to Connect the JFrog Platform to Your GitHub Environment to Create a Seamless Integration

The collaboration between JFrog and GitHub introduces a seamless integration that combines source code and binary management, offering a unified, secure, and end-to-end experience for software projects. This integration enhances the developer experience through unified authentication and authorization, bi-directional code and package linking, and integrated security features. By enabling GitHub workflow actions and seamless SSO authentication, developers can easily link code and packages across both platforms and access JFrog Advanced Security findings directly from the GitHub dashboard. The integration streamlines processes such as curating open-source packages, coding, CI, release management, deployment, and production by leveraging tools like JFrog CLI and Frogbot, which scans for vulnerabilities and provides remediation suggestions. The setup involves configuring GitHub variables, OAuth, and OIDC to establish trust and enable smooth interactions between GitHub Actions and the JFrog Platform, ultimately facilitating improved security posture and compliance through detailed reports and dashboards.
