View Dependabot alerts across the enterprise

GitHub secret scanning protects users by searching repositories for known types of secrets. By identifying and flagging these secrets, we help protect users from data leaks and fraud associated with exposed data.

We have partnered with DigitalOcean to scan for their API keys, which allow users to manage Droplets and resources. We'll forward API keys found in public repositories to DigitalOcean, who will revoke valid keys and email the affected user.

GitHub Advanced Security customers can also scan for DigitalOcean API keys and block them from entering their private and public repositories via secret scanning’s new push protection feature.

GitHub Advanced Security customers can now dry run custom secret scanning patterns at the enterprise level (in addition to the organization and repository levels previously available). Dry runs allow admins to understand a pattern's impact across the entire enterprise and hone the pattern before publishing and generating alerts.

Admins can compose a pattern then 'Save and dry run' to retrieve results from their selected repositories. Scan results will appear on screen as they're detected, but admins can leave the page and later come back to their saved pattern's dry run results.
