Security vulnerabilities don't fix themselves, but with the right tools and practices, fixing them can become second nature. In this intensive hands-on workshop, you'll master GitHub Advanced Security (GHAS) by actively detecting, preventing, and remediating real security issues in a live codebase. From identifying code quality problems to blocking secrets before they leak, you'll experience the full security lifecycle using the same tools trusted by enterprises worldwide.

Walk away with practical skills in code scanning, dependency analysis, secret protection, and organization-wide security management. Minimal slides, maximum hands-on, just you, your IDE, and a mission to secure code like a pro.

What You'll Accomplish

Master Detection & Prevention
Enable and configure the complete GHAS suite. Experience hands-on vulnerability detection through Code Quality analysis, CodeQL scanning, Dependency Review, and Secret Protection. Use Copilot Autofix to remediate issues, implement repository rulesets to block dangerous code, and watch push protection stop secrets in real-time.

Command Organization-Wide Security
Navigate Security Overview dashboards to visualize risks across your entire organization. Create and manage security campaigns that coordinate remediation efforts across teams. Master secret scanning workflows including token revocation, bypass governance, and custom pattern management at enterprise scale.

Implement Advanced Security Automation
Build custom CodeQL queries tailored to your codebase's unique risks. Configure advanced scanning workflows, integrate third-party security tools, and implement enterprise-grade automation that scales across repositories and teams.
