Frequently asked questions

What is GitHub Advanced Security?

GitHub Advanced Security (GHAS) encompasses GitHub’s application security products comprising GitHub Secret Protection and GitHub Code Security. GHAS adds cutting-edge tools for static analysis, software composition analysis, and secret scanning to the GitHub platform that developers already know and love. Unlike traditional application security packages that burden the software development toolchain with complex workflows that inhibit adoption, GHAS makes it easy for developers to find and fix vulnerabilities earlier in the software development life cycle.

Why choose GitHub Advanced Security instead of a third-party AppSec product?

Unlike third-party security add-ons, GitHub Advanced Security operates entirely in the native GitHub workflows that developers already know and love. By making it easier for developers to remediate vulnerabilities as they go, GitHub Advanced Security frees time for security teams to focus on critical strategies that protect businesses, customers, and communities from application-based vulnerabilities.

What is DevSecOps?

DevSecOps refers to a combination of the development, security, and operations tools necessary to develop software applications.

What is AppSec?

Application security (AppSec) is the process of finding, fixing, and preventing security vulnerabilities in applications. GitHub Advanced Security provides AppSec tools for static application security testing (SAST), which identifies vulnerabilities in the code itself.

Can I use GitHub Advanced Security with Microsoft Azure DevOps?

Yes. GitHub Advanced Security is available as an add-on for Azure DevOps.
