It’s been a few months since Microsoft Build 2024 where one of the highlights was the launch of the Pangea extension for GitHub Copilot. Pangea was able to interface with Copilot Chat, bringing security into the development environment.
Developers asked how to implement specific security features and the Pangea extension returned a concise description of the relevant Pangea services and link to product documentation if further detail was requested. The Pangea extension also provided code samples that developers could use as a reference to further accelerate implementation.
For GitHub Universe 2024, we took our Copilot extension even further. From within VS Code’s Copilot Chat, the Developers can expect the Pangea extension to:
Supply code samples for developers for services like redaction, authentication, and secure audit logging
Create a free Pangea account and initialize the required services
Return the token to access the newly initialized services within the application
Link to documentation for further description
See how we have made developing secure code even faster.
Enhancing CI/CD Pipelines with the Pangea GitHub Actions
Automate security checks and processes within GitHub workflows with Pangea’s GitHub Action. These actions seamlessly integrate Pangea’s suite of security services into GitHub’s continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) pipelines, ensuring that security is never an afterthought. Pangea's GitHub Action automates critical security tasks like:
Redacting data like PII
Storing, rotating, and managing secrets/ tokens
Monitoring pull requests for suspicious URLs
Sending commit messages to a secure audit log
By integrating security into the workflow, these actions are giving teams the peace of mind they need to focus on innovation.
GitHub Universe 2024
Pangea is also very excited to participate as a Bronze-level sponsor at GitHub Universe 2024, October 29-30 and showcase the future of software development. With cutting-edge innovations, GitHub Copilot and Pangea’s security-focused tools, this collaboration is driving a new era of secure, efficient, and developer-friendly workflows.
Find us at GitHub Universe in the Gateway Pavilion. We will be the folks with the purple shirts.
We’ll be showcasing live demos of Pangea’s Copilot Extension and providing insights into how Pangea’s security services integrate seamlessly with GitHub’s developer tools. For additional information and virtual attendees, check out our booth online.
If you would like to learn more about Pangea, schedule time to meet with us. We look forward to meeting you at Universe ‘24.
Final Thoughts
With the world moving faster than ever, it’s critical to have the right tools to build and secure the applications of tomorrow. GitHub and Pangea’s partnership represents a significant leap forward in this regard, ensuring that developers can code with confidence and deploy with peace of mind.
