GitHub (Org Audit Log and Security Alerts) Connector

Use GitHub (Org Audit Log and Security Alerts) As a Review-Ready Evidence Source

Pull evidence from GitHub (Org Audit Log and Security Alerts), preserve source and collection history, and map the output directly to the controls reviewers ask about. Aurora automates recurring collection where the connector supports it and keeps export-based handoffs clean where it does not.

Setup

A short path from connection to an exportable evidence bundle.

01

Connect GitHub (Org Audit Log and Security Alerts)

Sign-in method: Github App Or Fine Grained Pat. Read-only, least-privilege access.

02

Confirm Evidence Sources and Cadence

Confirm evidence sources and set cadence (every 1 hour).

03

Validate Capture (Read-Only Where Possible)

Validate evidence capture in read-only mode (where possible) before expanding workflows.

04

Map Evidence to Controls

Map captured artifacts to controls (7 mapped controls listed).

05

Bundle evidence when needed

Export an evidence bundle (ZIP) when you need an offline attachment. Aurora keeps the underlying source and timestamps so the work stays reusable.

Common questions

GitHub (Org Audit Log and Security Alerts) Integration Questions

Short answers to common evaluation questions.

Does this require admin access?

It depends on the evidence you choose to capture. We'll confirm required permissions during setup.

Can we control cadence?

Yes. In eligible plans, cadence is configurable.

Can we export evidence if a reviewer asks?

Yes. Export evidence bundles for offline attachments, or give reviewers structured access through Trust Center. Aurora keeps the source and timestamps so work stays reusable between reviews.
