Securing your organization

Introduction

This guide shows you how to configure security features for an organization. Your organization's security needs are unique and you may not need to enable every security feature. For more information, see "GitHub security features."

Some features are available for all repositories. Additional features are available to enterprises that use GitHub Advanced Security. 詳しい情報については、「GitHub Advanced Security について」を参照してください。

Managing access to your organization

You can use roles to control what actions people can take in your organization. For example, you can assign the security manager role to a team to give them the ability to manage security settings across your organization, as well as read access to all repositories. For more information, see "Roles in an organization."

Managing Dependabotアラート and the dependency graph

Enterprise owners can configure Dependabotアラート for an enterprise. 詳しい情報については「EnterpriseでのDependabotの有効化」を参照してください。

Dependency review is an Advanced Security feature that lets you visualize dependency changes in pull requests before they are merged into your repositories. For more information, see "About dependency review."
