Phoenix Security is now Phoenix Security a transformative Contextual Vulnerability management platform from code to cloud
Phoenix Security’s context-based vulnerability management platform helps clients focus on the 10% of vulnerabilities that matters, from code to cloud.
LONDON, LONDON, ENGLAND, EINPresswire.com/ — LONDON, England (January 10, 2023) – Phoenix Security is excited to announce that it has rebranded from Phoenix Security, reflecting the evolution of its smart software security platform.
Initially launched in September 2022 as a solution for appsec and cloudsec, Phoenix Security has since evolved into a complete endpoint management platform that identifies vulnerabilities from code to cloud and prioritizes them for resolution. The platform also provides traceability for user fixing, helping clients optimize their use of security professionals and streamline their vulnerability management process.
Phoenix Security is on a mission to prevent burnout, contextualize vulnerabilities, and help security professionals and developers act on the risks and vulnerabilities that matter most. The company was established to provide an effective all-in-one security solution for application developers and businesses, and its platform connects to repositories, scanners, and the cloud to provide a prioritized list of vulnerabilities that need to be addressed first. The rebranding to Phoenix Security reflects the expanded capabilities of the platform and aligns with the company’s philosophy of cyber risk quantification, risk-driven action, and vulnerability prioritization.
I’ve chosen phoenix as a name and a symbol of reborn, the choice was right as we evolve from application security, and cloud contextualization in full stack vulnerability prioritizing platform”
Francesco Cipollone
The decision to rebrand was made as the company approaches the end of its second year and prepares for the launch of V3, which introduces new features that enhance team visibility and streamline vulnerability management even further. “We initially chose the phoenix as a symbol of renewal and rebirth, and as our platform has evolved, we felt it was appropriate to evolve the name as well,”
Said Francesco Cipollone, the founder of Phoenix Security. “We believe in the power of community, so we asked our supporters to help us choose a new name that reflects the capabilities of our platform. The overwhelming response was in favour of Phoenix Security, and we are thrilled to adopt this new identity.” Discover how Phoenix Security helps CISOs and developers remove friction and maximize the use of DevSecOps professionals at Phoenix Security

Discover CVE-2025-30066 tj-actions/changed-files GitHub Action has been compromised, exposing secrets in CI/CD pipelines and posing a major software supply chain security risk. Attackers injected malicious code into all versions (V1–V45), repointing existing tags to a compromised commit that exfiltrated credentials via GitHub Actions logs. Immediate remediation is required—organizations must scan their repositories, rotate secrets, and replace the action to mitigate risk. Learn how Phoenix Security’s ASPM can automate threat detection and enhance GitHub Actions security.
Tired of scrambling every time a new zero-day hits the headlines? Discover a threat-centric approach to vulnerability management that tackles root causes head-on. Dive into real-world examples—like the notorious Log4j (CVE-2021-44228)—and learn how ASPM application security, cybersecurity best practices, and frameworks (CVE → CWE → CAPEC → MITRE ATT&CK) can streamline remediation. Whether it’s ransomware or unauthorized access attempts on QNAP devices, see how focusing on broad threat categories and root cause analysis can supercharge your defense strategy and minimize patch fatigue.
ClearBank broke a 250-year banking tradition by becoming the UK’s first new clearing bank in centuries—a bold move that extends to their approach to cybersecurity. In partnership with Phoenix Security, ClearBank has pioneered advanced Application Security Posture Management (ASPM) techniques that go beyond merely identifying vulnerabilities. By focusing on root causes, defense in depth, and real-world context—like which services are mission-critical or shielded by a WAF—their teams prioritize what truly matters. Neil Reed, Principal AppSec Engineer, underscores the importance of targeted remediation, using Phoenix’s exception engine to intelligently downgrade or reclassify findings that pose minimal risk. This risk-based strategy is a game-changer in scaling security without overburdening engineering teams. By running structured remediation campaigns and cutting container noise by up to 91%, ClearBank’s DevSecOps workflow has evolved to be both agile and robust. Their forward-thinking stance shows how the right blend of technology, context, and collaboration can fortify an organization, keeping pace with shifting regulations and emerging threats.
EPSS V4 arrives March 17 with new insights on real-world exploit likelihood. Preliminary data shows moderate score shifts, though outliers exist, including a puzzling jump for CVE-2007-4559. Binned distributions reveal minimal changes near the lower end, often tied to unverified exploits, while bug bounty activity and threat feeds help validate higher-risk flaws. Ransomware campaigns frequently target vulnerabilities with high EPSS scores, reminding security teams that a single metric rarely provides the full picture. ASPM, application security reviews, and ongoing remediation efforts round out a more comprehensive approach. This holistic method considers bug bounty reports, active scanning, and real-time intel, ensuring that unknown zero-day threats are not overlooked.
Executives often pose one question: “Who owns this risk, and how extensive is it?” Phoenix Security addresses that challenge with Blast Radius Analysis and Business Unit Impact Analysis. These features bring clarity to ASPM initiatives, highlight shared vulnerabilities like Log4j, and offer a path to deeper root cause discoveries. Experience streamlined accountability, minimized patch cycles, and a stronger cybersecurity posture—all in one platform.- Mapping of vulnerabilities to Installed Software
