The problem it solves

When a new vulnerability comes in from your scanner, someone has to check whether it's already tracked, create or update a Jira ticket, and let the right people know, all before it slips through triage. Doing that by hand for every alert is slow, and duplicate tickets or missed notifications are easy mistakes under pressure.

Who it fits

DevOps, platform engineering, and security teams using Snyk for vulnerability scanning.

How it works

  1. A new vulnerability from Snyk arrives through a webhook
  2. The system validates the data and checks Jira for an existing matching ticket
  3. If a match exists, the Jira ticket is updated; if not, a new one is created
  4. A Slack alert is sent to the team
  5. The vulnerability is logged in Airtable for tracking and reporting
What you get

Vulnerabilities that never slip through the cracks

You get every new Snyk vulnerability automatically turned into a tracked Jira ticket with an instant Slack alert to your team.

What you get

An up-to-date Jira ticket for every vulnerability, a Slack alert, and a centralized Airtable record for reporting.

What you need

A Snyk account with webhook access, Jira, Slack, and Airtable.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.
