For more information, see [GitHub security features](/en/enterprise-server@3.21/code-security/getting-started/github-security-features).\n\nSome features are available for all repositories. Additional features are available to organizations and enterprises that use GitHub Secret Protection, GitHub Code Security, or GitHub Advanced Security.  For more information, see [About GitHub Advanced Security](/en/enterprise-server@3.21/get-started/learning-about-github/about-github-advanced-security).\n\n## Managing access to your repository\n\nThe first step to securing a repository is to establish who can see and modify your code. For more information, see [Managing your repository's settings and features](/en/enterprise-server@3.21/repositories/managing-your-repositorys-settings-and-features).\n\nFrom the main page of your repository, click **<svg version=\"1.1\" width=\"16\" height=\"16\" viewBox=\"0 0 16 16\" class=\"octicon octicon-gear\" aria-label=\"gear\" role=\"img\"><path d=\"M8 0a8.2 8.2 0 0 1 .701.031C9.444.095 9.99.645 10.16 1.29l.288 1.107c.018.066.079.158.212.224.231.114.454.243.668.386.123.082.233.09.299.071l1.103-.303c.644-.176 1.392.021 1.82.63.27.385.506.792.704 1.218.315.675.111 1.422-.364 1.891l-.814.806c-.049.048-.098.147-.088.294.016.257.016.515 0 .772-.01.147.038.246.088.294l.814.806c.475.469.679 1.216.364 1.891a7.977 7.977 0 0 1-.704 1.217c-.428.61-1.176.807-1.82.63l-1.102-.302c-.067-.019-.177-.011-.3.071a5.909 5.909 0 0 1-.668.386c-.133.066-.194.158-.211.224l-.29 1.106c-.168.646-.715 1.196-1.458 1.26a8.006 8.006 0 0 1-1.402 0c-.743-.064-1.289-.614-1.458-1.26l-.289-1.106c-.018-.066-.079-.158-.212-.224a5.738 5.738 0 0 1-.668-.386c-.123-.082-.233-.09-.299-.071l-1.103.303c-.644.176-1.392-.021-1.82-.63a8.12 8.12 0 0 1-.704-1.218c-.315-.675-.111-1.422.363-1.891l.815-.806c.05-.048.098-.147.088-.294a6.214 6.214 0 0 1 0-.772c.01-.147-.038-.246-.088-.294l-.815-.806C.635 6.045.431 5.298.746 4.623a7.92 7.92 0 0 1 .704-1.217c.428-.61 1.176-.807 1.82-.63l1.102.302c.067.019.177.011.3-.071.214-.143.437-.272.668-.386.133-.066.194-.158.211-.224l.29-1.106C6.009.645 6.556.095 7.299.03 7.53.01 7.764 0 8 0Zm-.571 1.525c-.036.003-.108.036-.137.146l-.289 1.105c-.147.561-.549.967-.998 1.189-.173.086-.34.183-.5.29-.417.278-.97.423-1.529.27l-1.103-.303c-.109-.03-.175.016-.195.045-.22.312-.412.644-.573.99-.014.031-.021.11.059.19l.815.806c.411.406.562.957.53 1.456a4.709 4.709 0 0 0 0 .582c.032.499-.119 1.05-.53 1.456l-.815.806c-.081.08-.073.159-.059.19.162.346.353.677.573.989.02.03.085.076.195.046l1.102-.303c.56-.153 1.113-.008 1.53.27.161.107.328.204.501.29.447.222.85.629.997 1.189l.289 1.105c.029.109.101.143.137.146a6.6 6.6 0 0 0 1.142 0c.036-.003.108-.036.137-.146l.289-1.105c.147-.561.549-.967.998-1.189.173-.086.34-.183.5-.29.417-.278.97-.423 1.529-.27l1.103.303c.109.029.175-.016.195-.045.22-.313.411-.644.573-.99.014-.031.021-.11-.059-.19l-.815-.806c-.411-.406-.562-.957-.53-1.456a4.709 4.709 0 0 0 0-.582c-.032-.499.119-1.05.53-1.456l.815-.806c.081-.08.073-.159.059-.19a6.464 6.464 0 0 0-.573-.989c-.02-.03-.085-.076-.195-.046l-1.102.303c-.56.153-1.113.008-1.53-.27a4.44 4.44 0 0 0-.501-.29c-.447-.222-.85-.629-.997-1.189l-.289-1.105c-.029-.11-.101-.143-.137-.146a6.6 6.6 0 0 0-1.142 0ZM11 8a3 3 0 1 1-6 0 3 3 0 0 1 6 0ZM9.5 8a1.5 1.5 0 1 0-3.001.001A1.5 1.5 0 0 0 9.5 8Z\"></path></svg> Settings**, then scroll down to the \"Danger Zone.\"\n\n* To change who can view your repository, click **Change visibility**. For more information, see [Setting repository visibility](/en/enterprise-server@3.21/repositories/managing-your-repositorys-settings-and-features/managing-repository-settings/setting-repository-visibility).\n* To change who can access your repository and adjust permissions, click **Manage access**. For more information, see [Managing teams and people with access to your repository](/en/enterprise-server@3.21/repositories/managing-your-repositorys-settings-and-features/managing-repository-settings/managing-teams-and-people-with-access-to-your-repository).\n\n## Managing the dependency graph\n\nEnterprise owners can configure the dependency graph and Dependabot alerts for an enterprise. For more information, see [Enabling the dependency graph for your enterprise](/en/enterprise-server@3.21/code-security/how-tos/secure-at-scale/configure-enterprise-security/configure-specific-tools/enable-dependency-graph) and [Enabling Dependabot for your enterprise](/en/enterprise-server@3.21/admin/configuring-settings/configuring-github-connect/enabling-dependabot-for-your-enterprise).\n\nFor more information, see [Enabling the dependency graph](/en/enterprise-server@3.21/code-security/how-tos/secure-your-supply-chain/secure-your-dependencies/enable-dependency-graph).\n\n## Managing Dependabot alerts\n\nDependabot alerts are generated when GitHub identifies a dependency in the dependency graph with a vulnerability.\n\nAdditionally, you can use Dependabot auto-triage rules to manage your alerts at scale, so you can auto-dismiss or snooze alerts, and specify which alerts you want Dependabot to open pull requests for. For information about the different types of auto-triage rules, and whether your repositories are eligible, see [Dependabot auto-triage rules](/en/enterprise-server@3.21/code-security/concepts/supply-chain-security/dependabot-auto-triage-rules).\n\nFor an overview of the different features offered by Dependabot and instructions on how to get started, see [Dependabot quickstart guide](/en/enterprise-server@3.21/code-security/tutorials/secure-your-dependencies/dependabot-quickstart).\n\nEnterprise owners must configure the dependency graph and Dependabot alerts for an enterprise.\n\nOnce Dependabot alerts have been configured, repository administrators and organization owners can enable Dependabot alerts for private and internal repositories in their \"Advanced Security\" settings page. Public repositories are enabled by default. For more information, see [Enabling the dependency graph for your enterprise](/en/enterprise-server@3.21/code-security/how-tos/secure-at-scale/configure-enterprise-security/configure-specific-tools/enable-dependency-graph), [Enabling Dependabot for your enterprise](/en/enterprise-server@3.21/admin/configuring-settings/configuring-github-connect/enabling-dependabot-for-your-enterprise), and [Configuring Dependabot alerts](/en/enterprise-server@3.21/code-security/how-tos/secure-your-supply-chain/secure-your-dependencies/configure-dependabot-alerts).\n\nFor more information, see [Dependabot alerts](/en/enterprise-server@3.21/code-security/concepts/supply-chain-security/dependabot-alerts).\n\n## Managing dependency review\n\nDependency review lets you visualize dependency changes in pull requests before they are merged into your repositories. For more information, see [Dependency review](/en/enterprise-server@3.21/code-security/concepts/supply-chain-security/dependency-review).\n\nDependency review is a GitHub Code Security feature.\n\nTo enable dependency review for a repository, ensure that the dependency graph is enabled.\n\n1.

Next to Dependabot security updates, click **Enable**.\n\nFor more information, see [Dependabot security updates](/en/enterprise-server@3.21/code-security/concepts/supply-chain-security/dependabot-security-updates) and [Configuring Dependabot security updates](/en/enterprise-server@3.21/code-security/how-tos/secure-your-supply-chain/secure-your-dependencies/configure-security-updates).\n\n## Managing Dependabot version updates\n\nYou can enable Dependabot to automatically raise pull requests to keep your dependencies up-to-date. For more information, see [Dependabot version updates](/en/enterprise-server@3.21/code-security/concepts/supply-chain-security/dependabot-version-updates).\n\nTo enable Dependabot version updates, you must create a `dependabot.yml` configuration file. For more information, see [Configuring Dependabot version updates](/en/enterprise-server@3.21/code-security/how-tos/secure-your-supply-chain/secure-your-dependencies/configure-version-updates).\n\n## Configuring Code Security\n\nGitHub Code Security includes code scanning, CodeQL CLI and Copilot Autofix, as well as other features that find and fix vulnerabilities in your codebase.\n\nYou can configure code scanning to automatically identify vulnerabilities and errors in the code stored in your repository by using a CodeQL analysis workflow or third-party tool. Depending on the programming languages in your repository, you can configure code scanning with CodeQL using default setup, in which GitHub automatically determines the languages to scan, query suites to run, and events that will trigger a new scan. For more information, see [Configuring default setup for code scanning](/en/enterprise-server@3.21/code-security/how-tos/find-and-fix-code-vulnerabilities/configure-code-scanning/configure-code-scanning).\n\n1.

This file instructs users about how to best contact you and collaborate with you when they want to report security vulnerabilities in your repository. You can view the security policy of a repository from the repository’s **<svg version=\"1.1\" width=\"16\" height=\"16\" viewBox=\"0 0 16 16\" class=\"octicon octicon-shield\" aria-label=\"shield\" role=\"img\"><path d=\"M7.467.133a1.748 1.748 0 0 1 1.066 0l5.25 1.68A1.75 1.75 0 0 1 15 3.48V7c0 1.566-.32 3.182-1.303 4.682-.983 1.498-2.585 2.813-5.032 3.855a1.697 1.697 0 0 1-1.33 0c-2.447-1.042-4.049-2.357-5.032-3.855C1.32 10.182 1 8.566 1 7V3.48a1.75 1.75 0 0 1 1.217-1.667Zm.61 1.429a.25.25 0 0 0-.153 0l-5.25 1.68a.25.25 0 0 0-.174.238V7c0 1.358.275 2.666 1.057 3.86.784 1.194 2.121 2.34 4.366 3.297a.196.196 0 0 0 .154 0c2.245-.956 3.582-2.104 4.366-3.298C13.225 9.666 13.5 8.36 13.5 7V3.48a.251.251 0 0 0-.174-.237l-5.25-1.68ZM8.75 4.75v3a.75.75 0 0 1-1.5 0v-3a.75.75 0 0 1 1.5 0ZM9 10.5a1 1 0 1 1-2 0 1 1 0 0 1 2 0Z\"></path></svg> Security** tab.\n\n1.
