Hi, my name is Mauricio Junior, and today I will show you how to enable Azure DevOps in your branch to check the security code as an agent. Microsoft called this GitHub Advanced Security for Azure DevOps.

Basically, the system enables the push protection checking if inside the code or pushes a commit that includes secret credentials. At the same time, the scan checks vulnerabilities in open source that you may be using in your system and uses CodeQL to analyze the application in code-leve the vulnerabilities such as SQL injection and authentication bypass.

I created many articles and videos @plataforma.academy telling the ecode10.com community about the SQL injection, and you can see more by clicking on the link.

The minimum .NET version compatible is .NET 8x or bigger, which means it's not possible to use it to check old versions like .NET 6x, .NET 2x, and .NET Framework 4xx.

To enable it, it's necessary to go to your Project settings inside the Azure DevOps project, select the *Repos -> Repositories, select the repository that you want to enable the advanced security, and turn on the option.
