Security overview for organizations and teams in beta

April 6, 2021

The new security overview for organizations and teams – which provides a high-level view of the application security risks a GitHub organization is exposed to – is now in beta for all GitHub Advanced Security customers on GitHub Enterprise Cloud.

Security overview

The security overview shows both these known security risks as well as where you have unknown risks because security features haven’t been configured.
