Source:-https://itbrief.com.au GitHub has recently rolled out code scanning to help developers detect and prevent vulnerabilities from popping up in their open source and enterprise code. Code scanning, which was released from beta to general availability in early October, aims to automate security directly into the developer workflow, furthering ‘security by design’ approach to applications and coding. GitHub adds that more than half of breaches are caused by vulnerabilities in application code – and many of these vulnerabilities are recurring patterns.
