Today, we announced a new BloodHound Enterprise platform with OpenGraph extensions that support cross-platform attack path management. One of the first extensions is for GitHub Enterprise and helps organizations analyze and remediate attack paths created in and through GitHub: paths to critical repositories and branches, paths to secrets, and paths that pivot from GitHub into other platforms through relationships like SSO and OIDC federation.
GitHub has become one of the most important security boundaries in the modern enterprise. It is where critical source code lives, where CI/CD pipelines execute, where deployment decisions are enforced, and where sensitive credentials and trust relationships often accumulate. But for many security teams, GitHub is still treated as a code hosting platform first and a security boundary second.
That is a mistake.
For a long time, we tended to think about systems like GitHub primarily as targets of attack paths. BloodHound’s roots are in directory attack paths, where control of Tier 0 served as a practical proxy for many of the things an attacker ultimately wanted. If an attacker could reach Tier 0, they could usually reach everything that mattered downstream. That framing is still critically important. But as BloodHound has evolved, so has our view of what should be treated as a first-class security objective. With Privilege Zones, organizations can define other critical assets they want to protect directly, including the repositories and branches that shape how software is built, deployed, and delivered.
That alone makes GitHub …
