Hot on the heels of GitHub Universe, we're bringing you simplified project creation and an improved experience for converting drafts into issues in repositories outside the project's organization.
Creating a project from your team or repository index page is now faster than ever! Instead of navigating to the organization page, simply use the dropdown on the Link a project button to select New project. We'll create a project and automatically link it to the team or repository from which it was created.
Work often spans multiple repositories and even across organization boundaries so we want you to be able to quickly create issues in whichever repository you need, right from projects. That's why we've made it possible to convert a draft issue into an issue in any organization you have access to. When selecting the repository for your issue, type in the organization name ahead of the repository and we'll take care of the rest. We also support the @me operator if you'd like to create the issue in a personal repository.

GitHub secret scanning protects users by searching repositories for known types of secrets. By identifying and flagging these secrets, our scans help prevent data leaks and fraud.
We have partnered with LocalStack to scan for their API key tokens and help secure our mutual users on public repositories. LocalStack's tokens allow for activation of the advanced LocalStack features for their Pro/Team/Enterprise products. GitHub will forward access tokens found in public repositories to LocalStack, who will immediately notify users and revoke any compromised tokens. You can read more information about LocalStack's tokens here.
GitHub Advanced Security customers can also scan for LocalStack tokens and block them from entering their private and public repositories with push protection.
