  • [nitpick] Consider clarifying the phrase 'a single GitHub Advanced Security' to explicitly state 'a single GitHub Advanced Security license' to improve clarity.
GitHub makes extra security features available to customers under Advanced Security licenses. From April 1, 2025, features that were previously only available under a single GitHub Advanced Security will be alternatively available under two separate licenses: GitHub Code Security (code scanning and dependency scanning features) and GitHub Secret Protection (secret scanning features).  The [Advanced Security documentation](/get-started/learning-about-github/about-github-advanced-security) provides more details.

  • [nitpick] Verify that the inclusion of 'GitHub Team' as a licensed user for Advanced Security features is intentional, as it differs from the previous version and may require documentation elsewhere.
Advanced Security features are licensed on a "Unique Committer" basis. A "Unique Committer" is a licensed user of GitHub Team, GitHub Enterprise, GitHub Enterprise Cloud, or GitHub Enterprise Server, who has made a commit in the last 90 days to any repository with any GitHub Advanced Security functionality activated. You must acquire an appropriate GitHub Advanced Security User license for each of your Unique Committers. You may only use GitHub Advanced Security features on codebases that are developed by or for you. For GitHub Team and GitHub Enterprise Cloud users, some Advanced Security features may also require the use of GitHub Actions.

Tip: If you use Visual Studio Code, you can request a review from Copilot before you push from the "Source Control" tab. Learn more
