The client
A leading global banking and financial services organization, headquartered in New York, engaged enreap to strengthen application security across its large and diverse application landscape. With multiple development teams working on technologies like Java, Python, and Node.js, the organization required a scalable and efficient approach to ensure application security, compliance, and timely vulnerability management.
Client requirements
- Automated Security Integration Embed security scans into the development lifecycle to eliminate manual processes and delays.
- Centralized Visibility & Tracking Provide a unified view of vulnerabilities, scan results, and remediation status across teams.
- Scalable & Extensible Framework Enable integration of multiple security tools and support evolving DevSecOps requirements.
Our approach & solution
enreap designed an event-driven DevSecOps framework integrated with GitLab CI/CD pipelines to automate application security scans. The approach enabled asynchronous scan execution, centralized result publishing, and seamless integration with existing tools—ensuring security became an integral part of the software development lifecycle without impacting developer productivity.
Event-Driven Orchestration
Leveraged an IFTTT-based framework using tools like Kafka and StackStorm to trigger and manage scans via API/CLI integrations with multiple AppSec tools.
Centralized Visibility & Extensibility
Enabled unified dashboards for scan results and vulnerability tracking, with a scalable architecture to integrate additional security tools over time.
