Endor Labs provides an Azure DevOps App that continuously scans Azure repos in your projects for security risks. You can selectively scan your repositories for SCA, secrets, SAST, or CI/CD tools.

You can choose to configure the Azure DevOps App at the organization level or the project level. When you configure the Azure DevOps App at the organization level, Endor Labs adds all the projects under the organization and scans all the repos in the projects. When you add an Azure DevOps project, Endor Labs scans all repos within that project.

See Manage Azure App to learn how to manage your Azure App integration in Endor Labs.

Managed namespaces for Azure DevOps

You need to add an Azure organization or a project to an Endor Labs namespace. Organizations and projects in Azure DevOps are mapped as managed namespaces in Endor Labs.

Managed namespaces have the following restrictions:

• You cannot delete managed namespaces.
• You cannot delete repos present within managed namespaces.
• You cannot add projects or create namespaces within managed namespaces.
• You cannot create any new Endor Labs App installation within the managed namespaces.

Namespace structure when you add an Azure organization

When you add an Azure organization to an Endor Labs namespace, Endor Labs creates a child namespace for the organization and creates child namespaces for each project in the organization under the organization namespace. The organization namespace and project namespaces are managed namespaces. You can add multiple projects to the same Endor Labs namespace. Each project will have its own managed namespace.

If your organization name is deerinc and you have three projects, buck, doe, and fawn, Endor Labs creates four managed namespaces: deerinc, buck, doe, and fawn. The namespaces buck, doe, and fawn are child namespaces of the deerinc namespace.

The following image shows the namespace structure in Endor Labs.

Namespace structure when you add an Azure DevOps project

When you add an Azure DevOps project to an Endor Labs namespace, Endor Labs creates a child namespace for the Azure DevOps project and maps all repositories in that project to this namespace. The child namespace that maps to the Azure DevOps project is a managed namespace. The managed namespace has the name, <organization name>-<project name>. For example, if your organization name is deerinc and project name is doe, the managed namespace will have the name, deerinc-doe.

You can add multiple projects to the same Endor Labs namespace. Each project will have its own managed namespace. For example, your organization name is deerinc, which has three projects, buck,doe, andfawn. You add each project to the Endor Labs namespace, endor-azure.

Prerequisites for Azure DevOps App

Ensure the following prerequisites are in place before you install the Endor Labs Azure DevOps App.

• An Azure DevOps cloud account and organization. If you don’t have one, create one at Azure DevOps.
• Endor Labs Azure DevOps App requires read permissions to in your projects. You can grant these permissions by providing read access to the Code category when you create an Azure DevOps personal access token for Endor Labs.

Install the Azure DevOps App

To automatically scan repositories using the Azure DevOps App:

1. Sign in to Endor Labs.

2. Select Projects from the left sidebar and click Add Project.

3. From AZURE, select Azure DevOps App.

   

4. Enter the host URL of your Azure project.

   The URL must be in the format, https://dev.azure.com/<ORG_NAME>/ when you add an Azure organization. When you add an Azure DevOps project, the URL must be in the format, https://dev.azure.com/<ORG_NAME>/<PROJECT_NAME>.

5. Enter your personal access token from Azure.

   You must have at least read permissions in the Code category for your Azure DevOps personal access token.

6. Click Scanners and select the scan types to enable.

   • SCA: Perform software composition analysis and discover AI models used in your repository.
   • Secret: Scan Azure repos for exposed secrets.
   • CI/CD: Scan Azure repos and identify all the CI/CD tools used.
   • SAST: Scan your source code for weakness and generate SAST findings.

   The available scan types depend upon your license.

7. Select Include Disabled Repositories to scan your archived repositories. By default, the Azure archived repositories aren’t scanned.

8. Click Create.

Endor Labs Azure DevOps App scans your Azure repos every 24 hours and reports any new findings or changes to release versions of your code.
