GitHub Advanced Security Services
Assisted security with GHAS and AI: secure, proven, and fast
Award
We won GitHub's Channel Partner of the Year award two years in a row—for EMEA in 2024 and Security Services in 2025.
Turning on GHAS is easy, but making it work right for you is hard. Without governance, threats can remain. We enable, tune and embed GHAS into your workflows—so findings become fixes, evidence is audit-ready, and developers stay productive.
Why Eficode: Proven GHAS deployment and governance expertise
We go beyond activation. Our experts design CodeQL policies, secret-scanning rules, and Dependabot governance to match your security posture. With migration and security know-how across Europe, we make GHAS compliant, measurable, and truly developer-friendly.

Developer-first integration
Security runs in the flow of work. Secret scanning, push protection, and Dependabot wired into CI keep code safe without slowing teams.
Assisted AI-security
Utilize embedded AI and automation in your everyday workflow: developer-first and security are not mutually exclusive.
Secret protection & governance
Stop leaks before they happen. GHAS policies, routing, and logging deliver preventive security and audit-ready governance.
Unified with Azure DevOps
Extend GHAS across GitHub and Azure DevOps for consistent policies, shared visibility, and end-to-end compliance.
From activation to assurance: GHAS that truly works
Implement GHAS during your GitHub Enterprise migration so you start compliant and protected from the first commit.
CodeQL, secret scanning, and dependency policies aligned with migration playbooks
Security embedded in wave cutovers and validation steps
Immediate audit readiness post-cutover
One accountable partner for migration + security enablement.
We configure GHAS for real-world impact—mapping CodeQL, secrets, and dependencies to your org structure for fewer false positives and faster fixes.
Policy design and CodeQL tuning by language and repo
Secret scanning + push protection with clear routing
Dashboards, ownership, and SLA-based governance
Developer playbooks and enablement
Ongoing reviews, KPI tracking, and optimization keep GHAS aligned with evolving codebases, compliance, and DevSecOps maturity.
Quarterly audits and CodeQL query reviews
Metrics: MTTR, alert volume, false positive trends
Continuous tuning for new repos and languages
Integration with Eficode ProfessionalContinuous Services for full lifecycle support.
The collaboration was highly pragmatic and direct. Eficode provided migration services and support on very short notice. They were flexible to our requirements and always available during the migration.

What is GHAS?
GitHub Advanced Security adds developer-first security to GitHub: CodeQL code scanning, secret scanning with push protection, dependency review, and Dependabot updates. We enable and tune these features across orgs and repos so findings route to owners, become fixes, and produce audit-ready evidence.
Why companies choose GHAS
It shifts security left with the tool that is part of developers everyday workflow. It enhances the quality of your PRs, reduces tool sprawl, and gives clear guidance on potential vulnerabilities. With Eficode, GHAS is enabled to be compliance ready with the solution that will automate your regulatory requirements (SOC2, NIS, DPIA inputs, audits/retention, works-council comms) and KPIs (MTTR, false positives) to prove real risk reduction.
Isn’t GHAS just a toggle?
Activation is easy; making it work at scale isn’t. We map repos and owners, tune CodeQL queries, set secret patterns and push protection, define SLAs, and wire dashboards and PR checks. The result: fewer false positives, faster fixes, and exportable evidence—without slowing developers.
