Dependabot has opened a security update pull request that replaces the affected version with a patched release. The team wants the alert resolved by fixing the dependency, without dismissing it. What should they do? A security manager needs an organization-wide view of vulnerable repositories, gaps in security feature adoption, and a way to coordinate remediation across teams. Which three parts of GitHub Security Overview address those needs? Select three. An organization is planning security coverage for private repositories. It needs secret scanning with Push Protection, as well as code scanning and dependency review. Which two GitHub Advanced Security products should it evaluate for these capabilities? Select two. An enterprise owns four GitHub organizations. Repository administrators in two of them should be allowed to enable Advanced Security products, while repository administrators in the other two should not gain that permission. Which enterprise control matches this requirement? An organization wants to apply a common security feature configuration to many repositories. A repository administrator also needs to adjust an unenforced security setting on one repository. Which two management surfaces fit those tasks?

Try 5 Free Demo Questions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Question 1<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
A. Review and merge the security update pull request into the default branch.
B. Approve the pull request but leave it unmerged.
C. Add a SECURITY.md<\/code> file describing the vulnerability.
D. Export the repository’s software bill of materials (SBOM).
Answer:<\/strong> A
Explanation:<\/strong> Merging the security update changes the vulnerable dependency on the default branch, and GitHub marks the corresponding Dependabot alert as resolved. Approval alone leaves the update unmerged; a security policy file and an SBOM do not change the affected dependency.<\/p>\n\n\n\nQuestion 2<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
A. The Risk view for exploring exposure from security alerts.
B. The enterprise billing page for reviewing license invoices.
C. The Coverage view for checking which repositories have security features enabled.
D. The branch comparison view for resolving merge conflicts.
E. Campaigns for grouping and assigning targeted remediation work.
Answer:<\/strong> A, C, E
Explanation:<\/strong> Risk helps the manager examine alert exposure, Coverage shows adoption of security features, and Campaigns organize remediation across repositories. Billing invoices and branch comparisons serve different purposes and are not the Security Overview views needed for this task.<\/p>\n\n\n\nQuestion 3<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
A. GitHub Secret Protection.
B. The dependency graph.
C. GitHub Code Security.
D. Dependabot alerts.
Answer:<\/strong> A, C
Explanation:<\/strong> GitHub Secret Protection includes secret scanning and Push Protection. GitHub Code Security includes code scanning and dependency review. The dependency graph and Dependabot alerts are useful supply chain features, but they are not the two Advanced Security products requested here.<\/p>\n\n\n\nQuestion 4<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
A. Set the Advanced Security availability policy to Allow for selected organizations and choose the two organizations.
B. Apply a branch ruleset only to repositories in the two organizations.
C. Turn on Dependabot alerts for every organization in the enterprise.
D. Change the default repository visibility in the two organizations.
Answer:<\/strong> A
Explanation:<\/strong> The enterprise Advanced Security availability policy can allow repository administrators to enable the products in selected organizations. A branch ruleset, Dependabot alert setting, or repository visibility default does not set that product availability boundary. Organization owners and security managers have separate authority, so this policy specifically concerns repository administrators.<\/p>\n\n\n\nQuestion 5<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
A. An organization security configuration applied to the repositories.
B. The repository’s Settings > Security and quality > Advanced Security page.
C. The enterprise billing page.
D. The repository’s SECURITY.md<\/code> policy file.
E. The organization’s default repository permission setting.
Answer:<\/strong> A, B
Explanation:<\/strong> Organization security configurations apply feature settings across repositories, while an administrator can manage eligible features in an individual repository’s Advanced Security settings. An enforced configuration or higher-level policy may restrict that local change. Billing, SECURITY.md<\/code>, and general repository permissions do not provide the two requested feature-configuration surfaces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
