Product Updates: Escape’s Advanced Jira Integration - Send Remediation Details to Your Developers

Alexandra Charikova -

Bridging the gap between security and development has never been easier.

We’re thrilled to introduce Escape’s advanced Jira integration!

Security teams can now automatically share actionable vulnerability information with pre-filled remediation steps in Jira, saving time and ensuring faster resolution. No more back-and-forth—your developers can hit the ground running with the fix already in hand.

Why this matters

The integration not only sends detailed vulnerability information but also automatically includes tailored remediation code snippets directly within the Jira ticket.

This is a game-changer for several reasons:

  1. Immediate Action for Developers
    Developers no longer need to analyze long reports or figure out how to address a vulnerability. The inclusion of remediation code means they can begin implementing the fix immediately. This reduces the risk of misinterpretation and frees developers to focus on applying secure, correct solutions.
  2. Accelerated Remediation Cycles
    With ready-to-use code provided in the ticket, the time spent from identifying a vulnerability to resolving it is drastically reduced. Security and development teams can move quickly, closing the gap between detection and remediation, which is especially critical in high-stakes environments where vulnerabilities can have severe consequences.
  3. Consistency in Fixes
    Providing the exact remediation steps eliminates inconsistencies that can occur when different developers interpret vulnerability information in various ways. This ensures a standardized, high-quality fix across the board, reducing security risks due to improper patching.
  4. Improved Collaboration
    By automatically providing developers with the necessary remediation framework and code, the integration strengthens the collaboration between security and development teams. Developers receive actionable, context-rich tickets with all the necessary details—streamlining communication and preventing delays caused by incomplete or unclear information.

  • Vulnerability name (e.g., Broken Object Level Authorization (BOLA)).
  • Curl Request(s) used
  • Remediation steps
  • Relevant code snippets tailored to framework
  • Associated application labels
  • Adjustable ticket priority
