Explore secure coding practices and secure software design principles to incorporate advanced security features like encryption, authentication, and authorization. With practical strategies and techniques to secure applications throughout the development lifecycle, you can learn about emerging trends such as generative AI and machine learning.
In the last few months, we secured 75+ GitHub Actions workflows in open source projects, disclosing 90+ different vulnerabilities. Out of this research we produced new support for workflows in CodeQL, empowering you to secure yours.
In practice, shifting left has been more about shifting the burden rather than the ability. But AI is bringing its promise closer to reality. Here’s how.
The GitHub Security Lab teamed up with Ekoparty once again to create some challenges for its yearly Capture the Flag competition!
Learn about how we run a scalable vulnerability management program built on top of GitHub.
Improve your GitHub Action’s security posture by securing your source repository, protecting your maintainers, and making it easy to report security incidents.
Learn how teams can leverage the power of GitHub Advanced Security’s code scanning and GitHub Actions to integrate the right security testing tools at the right time.
GitHub now tells you whether GitHub tokens found by secret scanning are active so you can prioritize and escalate remediation efforts.
GitHub now allows you to track any leaked secrets in your public repository, for free. With secret scanning alerts, you can track and action on leaked secrets directly within GitHub.
AppSec expert Niroshan Rajadurai says putting developers at the center of everything will enable you to meet your security goals.
Fine-grained personal access tokens offer enhanced security to developers and organization owners, to reduce the risk to your data of compromised tokens.
Having a robust security plan is key to innovation. These tips will empower you to gain the upper hand on cyberattacks, so you can ship quickly and innovate with ease.
To combat the prevalence of malware in the open source ecosystem, GitHub now publishes malware occurrences in the GitHub Advisory Database. These advisories power Dependabot alerts and remain forever free and usable by the community.
We’re taking a look at some of the most common security vulnerabilities and detailing how developers can best protect themselves.
Ensuring secure access to your source code is more important than ever. Git Credential Manager helps make that easy.
If there’s one habit that can make software more secure, it’s probably input validation. Here’s how to apply OWASP Proactive Control C5 (Validate All Inputs) to your code.
The GitHub Security Lab’s CodeQL bounty program fuels GitHub Advanced Security with queries written by the open source community.
In this post, I’ll discuss how to apply OWASP Proactive Control C2: Leverage security frameworks and libraries.
Use GitHub’s security features to assess Apache Log4j exposure and, where possible, mitigate this vulnerability within your GitHub repositories.
This blog post is the first in a series about hardening the security of the Exiv2 project. My goal is to share tips that will help you harden the security of your own project.
Build what’s next on GitHub, the place for anyone from anywhere to build anything.
