Centralized policy enforcement
Define least-privilege GitHub Actions policies once. Enforce them across all repositories and teams. No exceptions without audit trail.
GitHub Actions compliance and threat detection at enterprise scale
Enforce workflow policies, detect runtime anomalies, and audit every execution—without slowing down your teams.
Explore for your organizationThe compliance gap in GitHub Actions
You've hardened your infrastructure. But GitHub Actions workflows run in your CI/CD pipelines with minimal guardrails. Teams use pull_request_target for convenience. Caches grow without validation. Tokens leak through logs.
Attackers see the gap. ActionShield closes it.
What ActionShield delivers
Threat detection & alerting
Monitor for token exfiltration, cache poisoning, and pull_request_target abuse in real time. Get alerts before damage occurs.
Audit & compliance reporting
Full visibility into workflow execution, policy violations, and security decisions. Build compliance reports for SOC 2, ISO 27001, and internal audits.
Branch protection integration
Block unsafe workflows at merge time using GitHub branch protection rules. No manual reviews. Consistent enforcement.
GitHub Enterprise support
Deploy on-premises or in GitHub Cloud. Works with your existing GitHub instance. No external SaaS required.
Developer experience
Pre-commit hooks and local linting let developers catch misconfigurations early. Shift left without friction.
Use cases
- Enforce least-privilege workflows: Restrict external action sources, pull_request_target usage, and privileged token access.
- Detect supply chain attacks: Catch cache poisoning, token exfiltration, and runtime privilege escalation before they compromise builds.
- Build compliance trails: Audit every workflow execution and policy decision for regulatory and internal investigations.
- Scale security without friction: Centralized enforcement across hundreds or thousands of repositories without slowing developer velocity.
Designed for enterprise GitHub
ActionShield is built as a GitHub App. Install once. Enforce everywhere. Works with GitHub Cloud, GitHub Enterprise, and hybrid deployments.
Start with core policy enforcement. Upgrade to advanced threat detection and premium audit logs as your security needs evolve.
FAQ
How does ActionShield integrate with our existing GitHub setup?
ActionShield installs as a GitHub App on your GitHub instance (Cloud or Enterprise). It integrates with branch protection rules and requires no external infrastructure or API management.
