Across industries, developers and DevOps teams rely on routine, repetitive processes to log and manage their software security vulnerabilities. But these processes are often inefficient, and they don’t require creative human thought. Although opening or closing a ticket in a defect management system (such as JIRA), or initiating a scan during the CI process to deliver more-secure software are essential, they’re often viewed as mundane.
These are considered mundane tasks because they typically require developers to navigate between various systems, copying and pasting as they go. By and large, your developers would rather not have to execute these processes, since they’re considered boring and take a lot of time – which can hinder time to market. In addition, these task can cause friction between development and DevOps teams.
This is where Checkmarx automation & orchestrating solution, CxFlow, comes into place. By introducing an end-to-end automation and orchestration flow from scanning to ticketing, it provides faster adoption, and a higher rate of application/project onboarding.
