Demo Day: Achieving DevSecOps with GitHub Advanced Security

In this whitepaper, we will walk through enabling and scaling GitHub Advanced Security (GHAS) across an enterprise in an automated but structured way. The core purpose is to share best practices based on previous implementations, helping larger organisations approach GitHub Advanced Security (GHAS) in an automated fashion.

You will learn:
- How to approach a rollout of GitHub Advanced Security. Including subjects such as documentation, education and scripting. 
- How you can leverage API's and pre-built open source solutions to automatically bulk enable code scanning across hundreds of GitHub repositories. 
- A structured approach to secret scanning. 

This whitepaper is a technical resource aimed at people interested in the details of a rollout. 

Let's talk about how you can scale and adopt GitHub Advanced Security in an automated and structured fashion
