GitHub Advanced Security boot camp – hands-on workshop

Software supply chain attacks and secrets leakages are still one of the biggest threat vectors for software companies. But supply chain security does not have to be a burden and slow down development! With GitHub Advanced Security (GHAS) you can incorporate security into your development process with a developer first mindset.

This hands-on workshop is designed for developers that want to improve their security posture by giving them practical exercises to get to know GHAS.

The workshop covers:

- Dependency graph, dependabot, and dependency review
- Secret scanning and push protection
- Code scanning and pull request integration
- Include other security tools in GHAS
- CodeQL and writing custom queries
- Rolling out GHAS in your organization
