Updates to repository enterprise policy, ruleset and custom properties

Recent improvements to enterprise repository policy, rulesets, and custom properties now ensure a more consistent, intuitive experience, making it easier for you to navigate and accomplish your tasks efficiently.

  • Enterprise repository policy page has been renamed to “Member privileges” to align the page title with the current URL path, API endpoints and the corresponding organization setting.

  • Repository rulesets now support enterprise owners as a bypass actor, ensuring your most privileged roles across your enterprise can bypass rulesets.

Heading elements have been added to Project board views to improve screen reader page navigation

Headings have been added to GitHub Projects’ board layout.

Each column’s title is now a second level heading, and each card’s title is a third level heading. We hope this update helps make navigation via screen reader easier and more intuitive for this experience.

An example project, placed in board layout. Each column of the board has a unique title, and contains multiple cards that communicate different initiatives. Each card also has a distinct title.

This update affects all GitHub plans, and is part of GitHub’s ongoing commitment to accessibility.

Enhanced security overview dashboard – detection, remediation, and prevention at the forefront

Now, you can view Prevention metrics alongside Detection and Remediation metrics and in an enhanced security overview dashboard. This update is available at both the organization and enterprise levels.

New prevention tab on the security overview dashboard

New to the dashboard, the Prevention insights tab highlights CodeQL pull requests alerts and will soon include secret scanning push protection insights. It’s designed to help you shift from merely responding to vulnerabilities to actively preventing them, the ultimate goal in application security. With this dashboard, you and your team can proactively keep vulnerabilities at bay, successfully blocking threats before they ever reach production.

Deep dive into the CodeQL pull request alerts

For a deeper analysis, the new CodeQL pull request alerts report is also available at both the organization and enterprise levels. This report allows you to:

  • Track historical metrics for CodeQL pull request alerts
  • Monitor code as it progresses from feature branches to the default branch
  • Analyze metrics by CodeQL rule, autofix status, and repository

The enhanced dashboard is now generally available on GitHub Enterprise Cloud and will be available in GitHub Enterprise Server 3.16.
