Securing your enterprise with Managed Users

Learn about Enterprise Managed Users.

With Enterprise Managed Users, you manage the lifecycle and authentication of your users on GitHub.com or GHE.com from an external identity management system, or IdP:

  • Your IdP provisions new user accounts on GitHub, with access to your enterprise.
  • Users must authenticate on your IdP to access your enterprise's resources on GitHub.
  • You control usernames, profile data, organization membership, and repository access from your IdP.
  • If your enterprise uses OIDC SSO, GitHub will validate access to your enterprise and its resources using your IdP's Conditional Access Policy (CAP). See 关于对 IdP 的条件访问策略的支持.
  • 托管用户帐户 cannot create public content or collaborate outside your enterprise. See 托管用户帐户的功能和限制.
