>[!TIP]
> This article is part of a series on adopting {% data variables.product.prodname_GHAS %} at scale. For the previous article in this series, see [AUTOTITLE](/code-security/adopting-github-advanced-security-at-scale/phase-4-create-internal-documentation).
{% ifversion security-configurations %}
{% data reusables.security-configurations.enable-security-features-with-gh-config %}
{% endif %}
## Enabling code scanning
After piloting {% data variables.product.prodname_code_scanning %} and creating internal documentation for best practices, you can enable {% data variables.product.prodname_code_scanning %} across your company. You can configure {% data variables.product.prodname_code_scanning %} default setup for all repositories in an organization from security overview. For more information, see [AUTOTITLE](/code-security/code-scanning/enabling-code-scanning/configuring-default-setup-for-code-scanning-at-scale#configuring-default-setup-for-all-eligible-repositories-in-an-organization).
{% data reusables.advanced-security.enable-default-setup-first %}
## Building subject matter expertise
To successfully manage and use {% data variables.product.prodname_code_scanning %} across your company, you should build internal subject matter expertise. For default setup for {% data variables.product.prodname_code_scanning %}, one of the most important areas for subject matter experts (SMEs) to understand is interpreting and fixing {% data variables.product.prodname_code_scanning %} alerts. For more information about {% data variables.product.prodname_code_scanning %} alerts, see:
* [AUTOTITLE](/code-security/code-scanning/managing-code-scanning-alerts/about-code-scanning-alerts)
* [AUTOTITLE](/code-security/code-scanning/managing-code-scanning-alerts/assessing-code-scanning-alerts-for-your-repository)
* [AUTOTITLE](/code-security/code-scanning/managing-code-scanning-alerts/resolving-code-scanning-alerts)
You'll also need SMEs if you need to use advanced setup for {% data variables.product.prodname_code_scanning %}. These SMEs will need knowledge of {% data variables.product.prodname_code_scanning %} alerts, as well as topics like {% data variables.product.prodname_actions %} and customizing {% data variables.product.prodname_code_scanning %} workflows for particular frameworks. For custom configurations of advanced setup, consider running meetings on complicated topics to scale the knowledge of several SMEs at once.
{% ifversion security-overview-org-codeql-pr-alerts %}
For {% data variables.product.prodname_code_scanning %} alerts from {% data variables.product.prodname_codeql %} analysis, you can use security overview to see how {% data variables.product.prodname_codeql %} is performing in pull requests in repositories across your organization, and to identify repositories where you may need to take action. For more information, see [AUTOTITLE](/code-security/security-overview/viewing-metrics-for-pull-request-alerts).
{% endif %}
{% ifversion copilot-chat-ghas-alerts %}
With a {% data variables.copilot.copilot_enterprise %} license, you can also ask {% data variables.copilot.copilot_chat %} for help to better understand {% data variables.product.prodname_code_scanning %} alerts in repositories in your organization. For more information, see [AUTOTITLE](/copilot/using-github-copilot/asking-github-copilot-questions-in-githubcom#asking-questions-about-alerts-from-github-advanced-security-features).
