What role is required to change a repository's code scanning severity threshold that fails a pull request status check?
To change the threshold that defines whether a pull request fails due to code scanning alerts (such as blocking merges based on severity), the user must have Admin access on the repository. This is because modifying these settings falls under repository configuration privileges.
Users with Write, Maintain, or Triage roles do not have the required access to modify rulesets or status check policies.

In a private repository, what minimum requirements does GitHub need to generate a dependency graph? (Each answer presents part of the solution. Choose two.)
Comprehensive and Detailed Explanation:
To generate a dependency graph for a private repository, GitHub requires:
Dependency graph enabled: The repository must have the dependency graph feature enabled. This can be configured at the organization level to apply to all new private repositories.
Access to manifest and lock files: GitHub needs read-only access to the repository's dependency manifest and lock files (e.g., package.json, requirements.txt) to identify and map dependencies.

What is required to trigger code scanning on a specified branch?
Comprehensive and Detailed Explanation:
For code scanning to be triggered on a specific branch, the branch must contain the appropriate workflow file, typically located in the .github/workflows directory. This YAML file defines the code scanning configuration and specifies the events that trigger the scan (e.g., push, pull_request).
Without the workflow file in the branch, GitHub Actions will not execute the code scanning process for that branch. The repository's visibility (private or public), the status of secret scanning, or the activity level of developers do not directly influence the triggering of code scanning.

Which key is required in the update settings of the Dependabot configuration file?
In a dependabot.yml configuration file, package-ecosystem is a required key. It defines the package manager being used in that update configuration (e.g., npm, pip, maven, etc.).
Without this key, Dependabot cannot determine how to analyze or update dependencies. Other keys like rebase-strategy or commit-message are optional and used for customizing behavior.
-- [Configure and Use Secret Scanning]
Secret scanning will scan:
Secret scanning is a feature provided by GitHub that scans the contents of your GitHub repositories for known types of secrets, such as API keys and tokens. It operates within the GitHub environment and does not scan external systems, services, or repositories outside of GitHub. Its primary function is to prevent the accidental exposure of sensitive information within your GitHub-hosted code.
