Risk and coverage views on the Security tab for organizations (public beta)

Security overview’s new risk and coverage views provide greater visibility into your security posture and risk analysis.

Each new view offers a refreshed design with several key improvements, including insights and dynamic filtering.

Coverage view

The coverage view gives visibility into enablement across all repositories. On the coverage view, you can:

  • See counts and percentages of repositories with GitHub security features enabled or disabled, which update when you apply filters
  • Track enablement for additional security features, including secret scanning push protection, Dependabot security updates, and code scanning pull request alerts.

Risk view

The coverage view is complimented by a new risk view that gives visibility into all alerts across these repositories.
On the risk view, you can:

  • See counts and percentages of repositories with security vulnerabilities, which also update when you apply filters
  • See open alerts segmented by severity for both Dependabot and code scanning.

Both views are now available as a public beta. In the coming weeks, we will deprecate the overview in favor of these two new views.

Search-based code navigation for Rust projects

GitHub's code navigation features jump to definition and find all references are now available for all Rust projects on GitHub.

When you view an Rust file on github.com, you can click on the name of a function, module, or macro to see its definition and its references within that repository. We use the tree-sitter library to find definitions and call sites in your code.

Learn more about code navigation for Rust and other languages in the GitHub documentation: Navigating code on GitHub.

Also, check out the tree-sitter library to learn how support for different languages is implemented.

Cross-repo code navigation for Python projects

Cross-repo code navigation is now available for all Python repositories. When showing the definition of a function or method, we now include definitions from other repositories, and from the Python standard library.

Cross-repo code navigation is powered by the stack graphs framework and by the Dependency Graph. You can read about how we use stack graphs for code navigation and visit the stack-graphs repo to learn more. You can also read more about code navigation for Python and other languages in our documentation.
