Design: Security & Compliance page for core users
Problem to solve
The current landing page for the Security & Compliance page for core users has proven very effective, but now that SAST has moved to core, we don't currently have a way of enabling SAST easily in the UI. We need to offer this path in addition to the incentive to upgrade (and/or start a free trial) so that more users use SAST and see the value that GitLab's Secure features have to offer.
Intended users
User experience goal
- Give users a path to enabling SAST from the UI
- Show the value in upgrading to Gold/ Ultimate
Proposal
1. Keep Security Configuration page, with the following changes:
- Update screenshots
- Add an "info" alert which includes a link to the Configuration page (see image below)
- @kcomoli and @s_awezec will continue to own this page, so we're requesting their team to make these changes

Proposed designs
2. Add a Configuration page, where user can enable SAST from within the UI. Clicking Upgrade or free trial text link takes user back to Security Dashboard page.
- Owned and built by SAST team
What does success look like, and how can we measure that?
TBD
What is the type of buyer?
Core, Starter, Premium (self-managed) and Free, Bronze, and Silver (Gitlab.com) accounts
Is this a cross-stage feature?

Questions/ Considerations
- Do we/ can we consider A/B testing two design variations?
