Microsoft GH-500 Exam Syllabus Topics:

TopicDetails
Topic 1
  • Configure and use Dependabot and Dependency Review: Focused on Software Engineers and Vulnerability Management Specialists, this section describes tools for managing vulnerabilities in dependencies. Candidates learn about the dependency graph and how it is generated, the concept and format of the Software Bill of Materials (SBOM), definitions of dependency vulnerabilities, Dependabot alerts and security updates, and Dependency Review functionality. It covers how alerts are generated based on the dependency graph and GitHub Advisory Database, differences between Dependabot and Dependency Review, enabling and configuring these tools in private repositories and organizations, default alert settings, required permissions, creating Dependabot configuration files and rules to auto-dismiss alerts, setting up Dependency Review workflows including license checks and severity thresholds, configuring notifications, identifying vulnerabilities from alerts and pull requests, enabling security updates, and taking remediation actions including testing and merging pull requests.
Topic 2
  • Describe GitHub Advanced Security best practices, results, and how to take corrective measures: This section evaluates skills of Security Managers and Development Team Leads in effectively handling GHAS results and applying best practices. It includes using Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) and Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE) identifiers to describe alerts and suggest remediation, decision-making processes for closing or dismissing alerts including documentation and data-based decisions, understanding default CodeQL query suites, how CodeQL analyzes compiled versus interpreted languages, the roles and responsibilities of development and security teams in workflows, adjusting severity thresholds for code scanning pull request status checks, prioritizing secret scanning remediation with filters, enforcing CodeQL and Dependency Review workflows via repository rulesets, and configuring code scanning, secret scanning, and dependency analysis to detect and remediate vulnerabilities earlier in the development lifecycle, such as during pull requests or by enabling push protection.
Topic 3
  • Configure and use Code Scanning with CodeQL: This domain measures skills of Application Security Analysts and DevSecOps Engineers in code scanning using both CodeQL and third-party tools. It covers enabling code scanning, the role of code scanning in the development lifecycle, differences between enabling CodeQL versus third-party analysis, implementing CodeQL in GitHub Actions workflows versus other CI tools, uploading SARIF results, configuring workflow frequency and triggering events, editing workflow templates for active repositories, viewing CodeQL scan results, troubleshooting workflow failures and customizing configurations, analyzing data flows through code, interpreting code scanning alerts with linked documentation, deciding when to dismiss alerts, understanding CodeQL limitations related to compilation and language support, and defining SARIF categories.
Topic 4
  • Configure and use secret scanning: This domain targets DevOps Engineers and Security Analysts with the skills to configure and manage secret scanning. It includes understanding what secret scanning is and its push protection capability to prevent secret leaks. Candidates differentiate secret scanning availability in public versus private repositories, enable scanning in private repos, and learn how to respond appropriately to alerts. The domain covers alert generation criteria for secrets, user role-based alert visibility and notification, customizing default scanning behavior, assigning alert recipients beyond admins, excluding files from scans, and enabling custom secret scanning within repositories.
Topic 5
  • Describe the GHAS security features and functionality: This section of the exam measures skills of Security Engineers and Software Developers and covers understanding the role of GitHub Advanced Security (GHAS) features within the overall security ecosystem. Candidates learn to differentiate security features available automatically for open source projects versus those unlocked when GHAS is paired with GitHub Enterprise Cloud (GHEC) or GitHub Enterprise Server (GHES). The domain includes knowledge of Security Overview dashboards, the distinctions between secret scanning and code scanning, and how secret scanning, code scanning, and Dependabot work together to secure the software development lifecycle. It also covers scenarios contrasting isolated security reviews with integrated security throughout the development lifecycle, how vulnerable dependencies are detected using manifests and vulnerability databases, appropriate responses to alerts, the risks of ignoring alerts, developer responsibilities for alerts, access management for viewing alerts, and the placement of Dependabot alerts in the development process.

Microsoft GitHub Advanced Security Sample Questions (Q17-Q22):

NEW QUESTION # 17
What is a prerequisite to define a custom pattern for a repository?

Answer: C

Explanation:
Defining a custom pattern for a repository
Before defining a custom pattern, you must ensure that Secret Protection is enabled on your repository.
Note: Enabling secret scanning for your repository
You can configure how GitHub scans your repositories for leaked secrets and generates alerts About enabling secret scanning alerts for users Secret scanning alerts for users can be enabled on any free public repository that you own.
Secret scanning alerts for users can be enabled for any repository that is owned by an organization.


NEW QUESTION # 18
Where in the repository can you give additional users access to secret scanning alerts?

Answer: A

Explanation:
To grant specific users access to view and manage secret scanning alerts, you do this via the Settings tab of the repository. From there, under the "Code security and analysis" section, you can add individuals or teams with roles such as security manager.
The Security tab only displays alerts; access control is handled in Settings.


NEW QUESTION # 19
Assuming dependabot.yml does not exist in the repository, how many reviewers would Dependabot automatically assign to an open pull request?

Answer: D

Explanation:
By default, Dependabot creates pull requests without automatically assigning any reviewers, so the correct number is zero. Reviewers can be configured explicitly through Dependabot configuration or assigned through repository mechanisms such as CODEOWNERS. GitHub recommends using appropriate ownership and review processes when particular teams should review dependency updates. This default differs from Dependabot's ability to create pull requests automatically: creating the update does not imply that a reviewer is selected automatically. A repository can customize Dependabot behavior through .github/dependabot.yml, including configuration related to update handling, but in the scenario specified there is no such configuration file. Consequently, no individual reviewer is automatically attached to the Dependabot pull request merely because Dependabot created it.


NEW QUESTION # 20
Which of the following Watch settings could you use to get Dependabot alert notifications? (Each answer presents part of the solution. Choose two.)

Answer: B,C

Explanation:
Comprehensive and Detailed Explanation:
To receive Dependabot alert notifications for a repository, you can utilize the following Watch settings:
Custom setting: Allows you to tailor your notifications, enabling you to subscribe specifically to security alerts, including those from Dependabot.
All Activity setting: Subscribes you to all notifications for the repository, encompassing issues, pull requests, and security alerts like those from Dependabot.
The Participating and @mentions setting limits notifications to conversations you're directly involved in or mentioned, which may not include security alerts. The Ignore setting unsubscribes you from all notifications, including critical security alerts.

NEW QUESTION # 21
Assuming there is no custom Dependabot behavior configured, where possible, what does Dependabot do after sending an alert about a vulnerable dependency in a repository?

Answer: A

Explanation:
After generating an alert for a vulnerable dependency, Dependabot automatically attempts to create a pull request to upgrade that dependency to the minimum required secure version-if a fix is available and compatible with your project.
This automated PR helps teams fix vulnerabilities quickly with minimal manual intervention. You can also configure update behaviors using dependabot.yml, but in the default state, PR creation is automatic.
