In today’s fast-paced development cycles, developers aren’t just writing code — they’re also making sure it’s safe. This session explores GitHub Advanced Security (GHAS) and how it empowers developer-first security by weaving automated security checks directly into your GitHub workflow. You’ll see how GitHub’s latest features — including autofix suggestions, secret scanning push protection, and CodeQL-powered code scanning — help teams catch and resolve vulnerabilities early, without disrupting velocity. We’ll also look at how new capabilities like Security Campaigns make it easy to create and track PRs across repositories so you can batch-resolve alerts at scale and monitor progress from a central dashboard. Whether you’re securing one repo or an entire enterprise, you’ll leave with proven GitHub-native strategies for “shifting security left” with confidence.

Key Takeaways:

- Spot and resolve issues faster with AI-powered tools like code scanning autofix, secret scanning, and dependency insight.

- See how GHAS integrates directly into your repos for frictionless, developer-friendly security without extra configuration.

- Learn how to scale security across teams and repositories using built-in visibility, metrics, and Security Campaigns to coordinate large-scale remediation efforts efficiently.
