Phase 1: Assess your current secret risk
4 記事10 minutes to run, 30 minutes to analyze resultsRun a free secret risk assessment (SRA) to understand your organization exposure and establish baseline metrics. Before purchasing GHSP, identify how many secrets are exposed across your organization and build a data-driven business case for the investment.

Phase 2: Evaluate GitHub Secret Protection
5 記事2-4 hoursDetermine if GHSP meets your needs and build a business case. Review detection capabilities, push protection features, and validity checking. Use the pricing calculator to estimate costs and calculate potential cost savings from preventing manual remediation.

Phase 3: Pilot GitHub Secret Protection
4 記事2-4 weeksRun a pilot to validate GHSP with a small set of repositories before organization-wide enablement. Select 5-10 repositories with active development and known secret exposure. If you estimated pricing in Phase 2, you'll confirm costs as part of the enablement flow. A successful pilot demonstrates security value quickly, identifies workflow adjustments, and gathers feedback to refine your rollout strategy.

Phase 4: Monitor and assess value
3 記事1-2 hours per week during pilotTrack metrics to demonstrate ROI and identify areas for improvement. Monitor how many secrets are being detected, how often developers bypass push protection, and how quickly leaked secrets are remediated. Use these insights to refine your rollout strategy, prove value to stakeholders, and justify organization-wide deployment.

Phase 5: Scale, customize, and automate
4 記事1-2 weeks for initial rollout, ongoing for optimizationExpand GHSP organization-wide and tailor it to your specific workflows. Use validity checks to prioritize remediation, define custom patterns for organization-specific secrets, and apply security configurations at scale. For advanced use cases, enable AI-powered detection and integrate with automated workflows.
