Security campaigns help organizations coordinate the remediation of security alerts across repositories and teams. In this module, you'll learn how to identify and scope campaigns, coordinate remediation through pull requests and dependency updates, measure changes in alert volume and remediation speed, and use prevention-first controls such as push protection, code scanning, and dependency review to reduce future security risk. You'll also learn how campaign insights support a continuous security improvement cycle.
