What we do
![Find vulnerabilities](/web/20211006013906im_/https://securitylab.github.com/assets/img/icons/existing_vulnerability.png)
Our researchers find and report new vulnerabilities in the open source projects everyone relies on.
![Educate the community](/web/20211006013906im_/https://securitylab.github.com/assets/img/icons/learning_github.png )
We share our research through proof-of-concepts, articles, tutorials, conferences and community events.
![Amplify security research](/web/20211006013906im_/https://securitylab.github.com/assets/img/icons/amplify-research.png )
We scale the security research of our community by performing Variants Analysis for open source projects with CodeQL.
![Notify the ecosystem](/web/20211006013906im_/https://securitylab.github.com/assets/img/icons/cve_record.png )
We curate a database of CVEs and security advisories to notify open source developers and maintainers.
Our principles
![Empower others](/web/20211006013906im_/https://securitylab.github.com/assets/img/icons/empower-others.png)
Make securing open source easy for developers and maintainers.
![Foster collaboration](/web/20211006013906im_/https://securitylab.github.com/assets/img/icons/community_actions.png )
Build a community of security researchers to serve the global open source community.
