Description
The objective of this service is to guide organizations in seamlessly integrating GitHub Advanced Security (GHAS) for Azure DevOps (ADO) and harnessing the combined capabilities of both platforms. Through a series of analyses, hands-on sessions, and educational modules, we empower you to embark on your GHAS and Azure journey autonomously.
1. Discovery:
Here, we undertake a collaborative review of your existing Azure DevOps environment. Our primary aim is to chalk out an optimal strategy for the adoption of GitHub Advanced Security within the Azure framework. Additionally, we'll determine the requisite setup and configurations tailored for your organization's needs.
2. Insight:
This phase is centered around knowledge transfer. Our experts will conduct sessions illuminating the nuances of GitHub Advanced Security within the Azure DevOps landscape. The training will encompass diverse facets, catering to administrators, developers, and Azure DevOps professionals.
3. Best Practices Implementation:
Upon finalizing the GHAS configuration tailored for Azure DevOps, we will actively embed the chosen setup. Moreover, we'll equip you with a versatile template code, ensuring other teams in your organization can replicate the setup with minimal effort.
Through this structured approach, we ensure your team gains a holistic understanding and can effectively leverage GitHub Advanced Security within Azure DevOps.
