Developer-friendly rollout

Built for CTOs & CISOs securing GitHub Enterprise Cloud.

The Risk

Your repositories are one token away from a breach.

GitHub has become the heart of your SDLC. But stolen tokens, compromised laptops, and rogue CI runners can all grant attackers full access to private repos — often without touching your SSO or VPN.

Stolen PATs and SSH keys bypass identity and device checks.

Malware on a developer laptop turns it into an attacker workstation.

Git / SSH / API access happens outside your login flow.

Traditional device trust covers login, not the GitHub operations that matter.

SECURITY GAP

The Token Loophole

Identity and device-trust tools validate posture at login. GitHub grants access long after, using tokens and keys that never go back through those checks.

Once a token leaks, attackers can clone, push, and exfiltrate code from any device. With no continuous verification, the identity & device trust you paid for no longer applies.

The Solution

Zero Trust, enforced at the GitHub layer.

Identity: SSO-bound, verified developer accounts.

Device: OS patches, encryption, EDR, firewall, and integrity checks.

Context: IP, environment, CI runner state, and access patterns.

EDAMAME continuously verifies every GitHub interaction — not just login. For every request, we evaluate identity, device posture, and context before GitHub grants access.

Only when all signals pass does GitHub allow the operation. Everything else is blocked — tokens alone are no longer enough.

ARCHITECTURE

EDAMAME orchestrates GitHub’s own security controls — Conditional Access and dynamic allowlists — so that GitHub itself only serves requests from verified users on secure devices.

Developer Device → EDAMAME Trust Engine → GitHub Enterprise

No inline proxies. No custom tunnels. Just native enforcement at the point where it matters: your code platform.

Core Capabilities

Everything you need to secure GitHub without slowing developers.

EDAMAME brings Zero Trust principles to your entire SDLC — from laptops to CI runners — while keeping workflows fast and familiar.

Verified developer identity

Bind every device to a corporate identity via SSO/IdP. Tokens, SSH keys, and CLI access are always tied back to a real, verified person.

Continuous device posture

Enforce encryption, patches, EDR, firewall, and integrity. If a device drifts out of compliance, its GitHub access is revoked in real time.

Native GitHub enforcement

Use GitHub Enterprise's Conditional Access and IP allowlists as the enforcement point. Edamame keeps them up-to-date for you.

Comparison

EDAMAME delivers the security guarantees of on-prem and air-gapped systems — with the speed and flexibility of modern cloud development.

More than VPNs, air gaps, or IP allowlists.

Alternative
VPN / Tailscale / ZTNA

Once a device connects, it's often fully trusted. Posture checks are sparse, and GitHub access is not evaluated per request.

With EDAMAME

Every GitHub request is gated by current identity and device posture. No tunnels. No implicit trust.

Migration

From on-prem to GitHub Cloud — without losing control.

Move from self-hosted or air-gapped Git to GitHub Enterprise Cloud with a Zero Trust model that keeps — and improves — your security posture.

Step 01

Assess & plan

Discover repos, users, devices, and CI pipelines. Map risks and target state for GitHub Cloud.

Step 02

Bind identity & devices

Connect to your IdP and enroll developer devices. Establish posture baselines.

Step 03

Enforce GitHub trust

Turn on dynamic allowlisting and Conditional Access enforcement for GitHub Enterprise.

Step 04

Secure CI/CD

Validate CI runners and build agents before they pull code or secrets.

Step 05

Complete migration

Decommission legacy Git while maintaining consistent Zero Trust enforcement across all repos.

Threat Scenarios

Real attacks, blocked by design.

EDAMAME neutralizes the most common SDLC attack paths — before they reach your code.

Scenario

Stolen personal access token

Without EDAMAME

Attacker uses the token from any device to clone private repos.

With EDAMAME

Device not verified or out of posture → GitHub rejects all requests using that token.

Scenario

Compromised developer laptop

Without EDAMAME

Malware pushes or exfiltrates code using existing GitHub credentials.

With EDAMAME

Posture deteriorates → device automatically removed from allowlist → GitHub access revoked.

Scenario

Rogue CI/CD runner

Without EDAMAME

Malicious runner pulls secrets and injects backdoors into builds.

With EDAMAME

Runner fails posture or integrity checks → denied before accessing repos or secrets.

Trust & Impact

Security leaders choose EDAMAME to harden their SDLC.

Combine the assurance of air-gapped systems with the agility of GitHub Cloud. EDAMAME lets you enforce Zero Trust without sacrificing developer velocity.

Stop supply-chain attacks at the source — your repos.

Strengthen compliance for SOC 2, ISO 27001, NIS2, DORA, and more.

Win developer trust by making security feel invisible.

EDAMAME gave us the confidence to move to GitHub Enterprise Cloud with the security guarantees we used to get from air-gapped infrastructure — without slowing our teams down.
