[Public Beta] Guest collaborators for enterprise managed users

GitHub Enterprise Cloud customers that use Enterprise Managed Users (EMUs) can now participate in a public beta for a new user role that has restricted visibility of internal repositories. The guest collaborator role is defined via SCIM and assigned to users by the identity provider. Guest collaborators helps companies who work with contractors and other short-term partners in a flexible and managed fashion on specific projects, while also sharing code and ideas without restrictions amongst full enterprise members. When a guest collaborator is added to an organization they will only receive access to internal visibility repositories within that organization.

EMU repository access for non organization members waitlist

GitHub Enterprise Cloud Enterprise Managed User customers can join a limited beta waitlist to enable individual repository access for users within their enterprise without granting organization membership. This is useful in cases where you intend to limit repository access for a specific user to the least number of repositories and combines well with features like guest collaborators to execute a least privilege access strategy. Any enterprise member is eligible to be added to an organization-owned repository and will result in use of a seat license if the user is not already a member of any other organization.

Prioritization made simple

With clear insights into severity and net resolve rate—security’s version of developer velocity—the dashboard shows you if your resources are aligned with the most severe threats and if remediation speed is in harmony with security demands.
