description: The following analytic detects when a repository is archived in GitHub Enterprise.
The detection monitors GitHub Enterprise audit logs for repository archival events by tracking actor details,
repository information, and associated metadata. For a SOC, identifying repository archival is important as it could
indicate attempts to make critical code inaccessible or preparation for repository deletion. While archiving is a legitimate
feature, unauthorized archival of active repositories could signal account compromise, insider threats, or attempts to disrupt
development operations. The impact of unauthorized repository archival includes loss of active development access, disruption
to workflows and CI/CD pipelines, and potential business delays if critical repositories are affected. Additionally, archived
repositories may be targeted for subsequent deletion, potentially resulting in permanent loss of intellectual property if
proper backups are not maintained.

description: The following analytic identifies when a repository is deleted within a GitHub organization.
The detection monitors GitHub Organizations audit logs for repository deletion events by tracking actor details,
repository information, and associated metadata. This behavior is concerning for SOC teams as malicious actors may
attempt to delete repositories to destroy source code, intellectual property, or evidence of compromise. Repository
deletion can result in permanent loss of code, documentation, and project history if proper backups are not maintained.
Additionally, unauthorized repository deletion could indicate account compromise, insider threats, or attempts to disrupt
business operations. The impact of a repository deletion attack includes loss of intellectual property, disruption to
development workflows, and potential financial losses from lost work. Early detection of unauthorized repository deletions
allows security teams to investigate potential compromises and restore from backups if needed.
