How do I turn off security alerts from a repo?

Body

Back in 2019 I did a presentation to my local .NET user group. We have a GitHub account for all members. I made a repository and pushed my code into it. Since then some of the libraries I used have developed security risks. I've updated the libraries, removing the risks. Then I created a PR, asking someone else to review, approve or discuss, and then accept the changes, and merging them into main.

Well, its years later, I get a weekly GitHub security alert digest on that repo. I've brought this up many times with my group, but no one does anything. So, I'm wondering if there any way I can turn off the security alerts from that repo?

Hi @rfalanga ,

Take a look this from the docs: Managing security and analysis settings for your repository.

Hey @rfalanga , in that case maybe unsuscribing from the repo notifications should work, for example by choosing to only receive notifications when participating or mentioned, take a look at this:

In setting of your repo you can disable alerts:
