01Summary
Alerts are ordered by severity and can be filtered or searched. Users can request Copilot to explain or fix issues, with changes applied only locally. Linked pull requests and dismissal options are available, with enterprise-level approval required for certain actions. The /security-review command checks local changes before pull request submission, and updates are triggered when code has changed since the last review.
Summarised from the original article by an open-source model, then checked automatically: every number and English name must appear in the source. The original article is authoritative.
02Key points
- Users can view and manage security alerts directly in Copilot app.
- Copilot suggests explanations or fixes; changes stay local and don't auto-commit.
- Alerts can be dismissed with approval if organization uses delegated dismissal.
- Run /security-review before pull request to detect new issues in current changes.
