Automatically detect code vulnerabilities with GitHub's security assessment, notify your team via Slack, and create prioritized security tickets in Jira for immediate action.

Workflow Steps

1

GitHub

Run security risk assessment

Enable GitHub's Code Security Risk Assessment feature in your repository settings. Configure it to scan for vulnerabilities, exposed secrets, and dependency issues across all branches. Set up automated scanning on pull requests and daily repository scans.

2

Slack

Send vulnerability alerts

Use GitHub's Slack integration to automatically post security findings to a dedicated #security-alerts channel. Configure the integration to include vulnerability severity, affected files, and recommended fixes. Set up different notification levels for critical vs. low-priority issues.

3

Jira

Create security tickets

Connect Slack to Jira using Zapier or native integrations. When critical security alerts are posted to Slack, automatically create Jira tickets with priority levels based on vulnerability severity. Include GitHub links, affected code snippets, and assign to the security team.
