IP Allow List Expansion for EMU Namespaces

GitHub Enterprise Cloud has extended its native IP allow list configuration to cover user namespaces associated with Enterprise Managed Users (EMUs). This new public preview feature ensures that enterprises can enforce consistent network access policies across all repositories within their organization, including those owned by user accounts managed through their EMU system.

What's New

The IP allow list now filters access to enterprise-managed user namespaces across multiple access vectors:

• Web UI access: All browser-based interactions are subject to IP allow list restrictions
• Git protocol: Command-line git operations (push, pull, fetch) are filtered
• API access: All API requests are evaluated against the IP allow list
• All credential types: Personal access tokens, GitHub App tokens, and SSH keys are all covered by the policy

Key Benefits

This enhancement strengthens security posture for enterprises that need consistent network access controls. By extending IP allow list policies to EMU user namespaces, organizations can:

• Enforce enterprise-wide network security policies uniformly
• Ensure repositories owned by managed users adhere to the same access restrictions
• Maintain consistent security standards across all enterprise resources

Getting Started

Enterprises interested in enabling this feature can review the GitHub documentation on configuring IP allow lists for detailed setup and configuration guidance.
