Use GitGat to Secure your GitHub Supply Chain

October 25, 2022Announcements

GitHub is one of the most popular SCM (source control management) systems in the world and is used by millions of open source developers. Take your first steps in learning to secure your GitHub repositories with GitGat. Learning to properly protect the SCM is an essential step towards securing the software supply chain, and specifically – securing your code. 

In this new course, GitHub Supply Chain Security Using GitGat (LFD122x), you will gain an understanding of these categories, why they are important, and how to implement the security controls in GitHub. Additionally, you will use the open source GitGat security report as a guide to the needed security steps and then see how to use GitGat to set a continuous security audit that takes the current state into account. Finally, we’ll peek under the hood to understand OPA (Open Policy Agent), GitGat’s underlying technology. 

The course is for anyone who has a GitHub account, manages repositories on GitHub, or is responsible for securing such repositories or accounts. The course could fit both hobbyists and professionals who manage GitHub organizations. In addition, the “under the hood” sections could interest developers wanting to learn more about Open Policy Agent-based projects.

The course authors are Scribe Security’s Danny Nebenzahl and Barak Brudo. Nebenzahl is the Co-Founder and Chief Technology Officer at Scribe Security. He previously served as a Lieutenant Colonel in Matzov – the Israel Defense Forces cyber defense center – where he led the research division for over a decade and was responsible for developing innovative cyber technologies. Brudo is an ERP, and full-stack developer now turned DevRel. He has a B.Ed in art education, so he is uniquely qualified to pass on information in a clear and concise manner. 

This new course is open to all for immediate enrollment. While the course is free and accessible for seven weeks after registration, you may also opt to pay for a certificate of completion. Visit the course landing page to learn more about the curriculum and how GitGat can keep your code secure.
