# GitHub Advanced Security (GHAS) Feature Matrix

This document helps answer the question "is this GHAS feature available in my version of GitHub Enterprise Server?".

The following tables include notable feature releases for GitHub Advanced Security. Each row represents a feature. The columns in the row indicate the level of support for each **supported** Enterprise Server release. Are your repositories hosted on github.com? All of these features are already available for you :+1:.

## Code scanning
Code scanning is a feature that you use to analyze the code in a GitHub repository to find security vulnerabilities and coding errors. Any problems identified by the analysis are shown in GitHub.
