## About enabling {% data variables.product.prodname_GH_advanced_security %}
{% data reusables.advanced-security.ghas-helps-developers %}
{% ifversion ghes %}
When you enable {% data variables.product.prodname_GH_advanced_security %} for your enterprise, repository administrators in all organizations can enable the features unless you set up a policy to restrict access. For more information, see "[Enforcing policies for {% data variables.product.prodname_advanced_security %} in your enterprise](/admin/policies/enforcing-policies-for-advanced-security-in-your-enterprise)."
{% else %}
When you enable {% data variables.product.prodname_GH_advanced_security %} for your enterprise, repository administrators in all organizations can enable the features.
{% endif %}
{% ifversion ghes %}
For guidance on a phased deployment of GitHub Advanced Security, see "[Introduction to adopting GitHub Advanced Security at scale](/code-security/adopting-github-advanced-security-at-scale/introduction-to-adopting-github-advanced-security-at-scale)."

## Checking whether your license includes {% data variables.product.prodname_GH_advanced_security %}
{% ifversion ghes %}
{% data reusables.enterprise-accounts.access-enterprise %}
{% data reusables.enterprise-accounts.settings-tab %}
{% data reusables.enterprise-accounts.license-tab %}
1. If your license includes {% data variables.product.prodname_GH_advanced_security %}, the license page includes a section showing details of current usage.

{% endif %}
## Prerequisites for enabling {% data variables.product.prodname_GH_advanced_security %}
1. Upgrade your license for {% data variables.product.product_name %} to include {% data variables.product.prodname_GH_advanced_security %}.{% ifversion ghes %} For information about licensing, see "[About billing for {% data variables.product.prodname_GH_advanced_security %}](/billing/managing-billing-for-github-advanced-security/about-billing-for-github-advanced-security)."{% endif %}
2. Download the new license file. For more information, see "[Downloading your license for {% data variables.product.prodname_enterprise %}](/billing/managing-your-license-for-github-enterprise/downloading-your-license-for-github-enterprise)."
3. Upload the new license file to {% data variables.product.product_location %}. For more information, see "[Uploading a new license to {% data variables.product.prodname_ghe_server %}](/billing/managing-your-license-for-github-enterprise/uploading-a-new-license-to-github-enterprise-server)."{% ifversion ghes %}
4. Review the prerequisites for the features you plan to enable.
- {% data variables.product.prodname_code_scanning_capc %}, see "[Configuring {% data variables.product.prodname_code_scanning %} for your appliance](/admin/advanced-security/configuring-code-scanning-for-your-appliance#prerequisites-for-code-scanning)."
- {% data variables.product.prodname_secret_scanning_caps %}, see "[Configuring {% data variables.product.prodname_secret_scanning %} for your appliance](/admin/advanced-security/configuring-secret-scanning-for-your-appliance#prerequisites-for-secret-scanning)."{% endif %}

{% data reusables.enterprise_management_console.save-settings %}
When {% data variables.product.product_name %} has finished restarting, you're ready to set up any additional resources required for newly enabled features. For more information, see "[Configuring {% data variables.product.prodname_code_scanning %} for your appliance](/admin/advanced-security/configuring-code-scanning-for-your-appliance)."
## Enabling or disabling {% data variables.product.prodname_GH_advanced_security %} features via the administrative shell (SSH)
You can enable or disable features programmatically on {% data variables.product.product_location %}. For more information about the administrative shell and command-line utilities for {% data variables.product.prodname_ghe_server %}, see "[Accessing the administrative shell (SSH)](/admin/configuration/accessing-the-administrative-shell-ssh)" and "[Command-line utilities](/admin/configuration/command-line-utilities#ghe-config)."
