Stack Overflow enhances ‘Content Health’ to end outdated knowledge #stack_overflow #GitHub Stack Overflow has enhanced its ‘Content Health’ feature that helps teams identify and correct outdated knowledge. Content Health is a feature for Stack Overflow for Teams that identifies potentially outdated or inaccurate knowledge content to help ensure workforces can get the right answers to their questions. Separate research from GitHub recently found that both open-source and enterprise developers benefit from a productivity boost of around 50 percent when provided with detailed, correct documentation—showing the potential gains of keeping content accurate and updated. Content Health was first announced in November 2021 and was immediately available to Stack Overflow for Teams ‘Business’ plan customers before it was rolled out to ‘Enterprise’ customers. Stack Overflow says that it saw an over 600 percent increase in monthly editing activity 90 days following the initial, limited release of Content Health. Teresa Dietrich, Chief Product Officer at Stack Overflow, said: “Nearly every technology leader has experienced knowledge management tools becoming inactive and irrelevant within an organisation due to a lack of investment in maintaining the institutional knowledge within it. Users lose confidence in the existing content, rendering it ineffective over time. Outdated content should not be the eventual norm and expectation of knowledge management tools. Content Health empowers teams to recognise and prioritise their knowledge debt much like their tech debt, removing the limited lifespan we’ve come to expect.” One key enhancement to Content Health is the sending of notifications to experts when content requires their attention. These alerts will appear within their personalised ‘For You’ feed and via email. When there’s a whole bunch of knowledge that needs updating, Stack Overflow is making it easier for users to prioritise with new filtering options. Content can be filtered by tagged topics or knowledge types, such as Q&A or Article. Finally, Stack Overflow has improved the workflow and experience by making it easier to submit corrections. Admins and Moderators can also now accept new answers to a question on behalf of users. “Like most enterprises our size, we have a complex tech stack and a large, distributed team. We rely on Stack Overflow for Teams to help scale our subject matter experts across time zones,” commented Adele Hardwick, Senior Versitilist Engineer at 84.51°. “Having a holistic view of how up-to-date content is with Content Health helps us better understand where knowledge gaps exist across the team and where team members could be getting stuck so that we can fix it.”

GitHub Advisory Database now accepts community contributions #github #database GitHub is opening its Advisory Database to community contributions to help further secure software supply chains. One vulnerability can have a devastating “domino effect” on software across the globe. With the use of open-source increasing, so does the threat of a vast amount of software being compromised. GitHub launched its Advisory Database almost two years ago. As the largest database of vulnerabilities in software dependencies in the world, it’s become an invaluable resource. Until now, the database has been maintained solely by GitHub’s teams of security researchers. However, GitHub believes it can become a more powerful resource with the help of the community. “There are community members with additional insights and intelligence on CVEs that do not have a place to share this knowledge,” explains GitHub in a blog post. To that end, GitHub is publishing the full contents of the Advisory Database to a new public repository and launching a user interface for making contributions. The community is able to contribute by navigating to the advisory they wish to contribute to and then submit their research through the “suggest improvements for this vulnerability” workflow.

GitHub To Release New Tools For Fixing Flaws In Projects #GitHub #Flaws Open-source software provides a high level of security, for example – GitHub. Unlike executable files that can only be viewed by their own programmers or developers, open-source projects may be tested by anyone. In reality, open source isn’t a solution. Now, GitHub is releasing new tools for its GitHub Advanced Security suite, making it easier to find flaws in open source projects hosted on its site. Open source programming poses certain security issues. In practice, not enough experts are looking at it. And open-source projects are usually ad hoc, with no defined mechanism for reporting vulnerabilities or resources for patching them. You may not even know who is using your open source code and requires a fix. GitHub bought Semmle in September to help its community automatically detect common security vulnerabilities. These services identify possible vulnerabilities in code, explain why they can be exploited, and describe how to repair them. Semmle’s technique may be utilized manually by security researchers as well as automatically. GitHub’s objective is to employ Advanced Security as both a developer warning system and a bug hunting framework. GitHub Advanced Security additionally scans user “repositories” for sensitive data like passwords and private keys that shouldn’t be exposed. They work with companies like Amazon Web Services and Alibaba to identify authentication tokens automatically. Public repositories have had this feature for some time, but today GitHub adds support for scanning private repositories. According to GitHub, 8% of active public repositories had a secret revealed in the previous month. With these new capabilities, GitHub is tackling massive security concerns. While not all open source projects use GitHub, the site is widely used as a community social network as well as a development tool. By providing Advanced Security, GitHub may enable more open source projects to benefit from the same tools that major corporations use to improve and secure their proprietary code. Despite the importance of identifying more security problems across GitHub projects, today’s software is still linked. Not every software product is written from scratch, but rather a combination of proprietary and open-source code. Your fitness tracker, smartphone, and automobile all have open source components from various developer projects in addition to proprietary hardware and software. Due to these interdependencies, reporting vulnerabilities and delivering fixes to the proper locations remains a challenge. GitHub established Security Lab in November to assist the community monitor issues and automate the patching process. While GitHub can have a big effect on how the open-source community handles security, Chris Wysopal, CTO of software auditing firm Veracode, says the company’s success doesn’t excuse the rest of the industry. “The thing with GitHub is that it’s naturally open,” Wysopal explains. “Nothing prevents a third party from checking all GitHub repositories for vulnerabilities and informing project maintainers.” That would be costly. GitHub claims providing free vulnerability screening and analysis tools in Advanced Security costs millions. But the business believes its own investment can demonstrate the value of open source security.
