Prowler has introduced a GitHub provider to enhance the security of software development pipelines by addressing vulnerabilities in repositories and organization settings. This initiative comes amid a rise in supply chain attacks, highlighting the need for robust security measures in both open source and private repositories. Prowler's new tool offers 17 checks aligned with the CIS GitHub Benchmark, revealing that default GitHub settings prioritize usability over security, as critical controls like branch protection and multi-factor authentication are not enabled by default. By using Prowler, organizations can identify and address security gaps quickly, leveraging tools like Lighthouse AI for actionable recommendations. Prowler Cloud provides continuous security assessments across various platforms, including GitHub, AWS, Azure, and Kubernetes, aiming to prevent vulnerabilities before they lead to supply chain attacks.
