GitHub Advanced Security (GH-500T00)

This course in intended for students who want to understand and implement advanced security practices with the help of GitHub Advanced Security (GHAS). They will learn how to significantly enhance software development processes and create a more resilient and secure development ecosystem using developer-first solutions to unlock the ability to keep code, supply chain, and secrets secure before you push to production. They will learn how GHAS gives security teams visibility into the cross-organizational security posture and supply chain and unparalleled access to curated security intelligence from millions of developers and security researchers around the world.

GitHub Advanced Security (GHAS) plays a crucial role in strengthening the security posture of software development projects on GitHub. It provides a comprehensive set of tools and features designed to identify and address security vulnerabilities throughout the development lifecycle. By integrating security directly into the development process with GHAS, your team can create more secure and reliable software. This course explores how to use GHAS to maximize security impact and understand the role of GHAS in the security ecosystem.

Practical and structured approach combining focused theory and guided workshops. Participants gradually discover the fundamentals of GitHub Advanced Security through concrete exercises inspired by real-world software development scenarios, promoting immediate application of the learnings.

They learn how to identify vulnerabilities, secure code, protect secrets, and strengthen software supply chain security using GitHub’s integrated security features.

Led by a Microsoft Certified Trainer (MCT), the training focuses on interactivity and the development of directly transferable skills to help teams build and maintain secure software throughout the development lifecycle.
