How Falcon Shield helps secure GitHub

How Falcon Shield helps secure GitHub

GitHub embedded security directly into the developer workflow, however, misconfigurations can create risks to your data.

CrowdStrike Falcon® Shield keeps Github secured by continuously reviewing security settings, protecting it from threat actors looking to steal your code.

Harden hygiene and branch protection

 

Protect important branches with robust branch protection rules to enforce workflows:

  • Apply rules to users and admins
  • Disable write permissions that push code to the repository
  • Require a verified signature for the commit action

Limit member privileges

 

Create a secure baseline:

  • Customize policies for new users
  • Prevent non-admin members inviting outside collaborators to repositories
  • Restrict members that can create teams
