Maximizing DevSecOps Efficiency with Contextual ASPM from Phoenix Security
Our client is a global leader in media measurement and digital ad optimization, sought to streamline vulnerability management across its complex code-to-cloud infrastructure. With engineering resources tightly allocated and containers sprawling across pipelines and cloud environments, they needed a smarter way to reduce noise, prioritize threats, and drive remediation — without adding security headcount.
The Phoenix Security platform helped sift through the clutter. By leveraging code-to-cloud contextual deduplication, intelligent team mapping, and pipeline-aware container lineage, our clients eliminated redundant vulnerabilities and aligned security data with engineering workflows.
Our client collaborated with Phoenix Security to enhance its DevSecOps capabilities and drive precision in vulnerability management across cloud-native environments. By implementing Phoenix Security’s platform, they were able to unify application security insights from source to runtime, streamline code-to-cloud security workflows, and execute cloud misconfiguration remediation with confidence. This partnership underscores how intelligent and automated ASPM capability can elevate engineering productivity, while also tightening security controls. Through this collaboration, AdTech client achieved substantial gains in application security performance and vulnerability reduction, including:
Slashed container vulnerability false positive driving clarity and focus across engineering teams.
Hours saved in developer time by optimization of vulnerability data and prioritization workflows.
Reduced false positives duplicated code and container issues unlocking a clear path from source to runtime.
Phoenix Security’s ASPM platform implemented a 78% reduction in container vulnerabilities by filtering out inactive and non-critical issues via container throttling.
By mapping SCA vulnerabilities directly to container images, Phoenix achieved an 82.4% reduction in SCA-related container issues. This tight linkage between source code and running containers helped our clients stop wasting time on theoretical risks that never made it to runtime.
Application-to-team assignment was automated using container lineage tagging, ensuring the right teams were accountable without manual intervention. This enabled faster triage and improved SLA compliance for vulnerability remediation.
By analyzing container deployment history and image usage across environments, Phoenix filtered out 78% of vulnerabilities tied to stale containers. Teams focused only on assets actively deployed in production — reducing noise and eliminating unnecessary remediation cycles.
This client exemplifies how application security can evolve beyond traditional vulnerability overload. With Phoenix Security, they operationalized ASPM, transforming a sprawling security backlog into actionable, team-owned intelligence. This case shows what’s possible when DevSecOps teams stop chasing noise and start acting on what matters.
Over 20K redundant container vulnerabilities eliminated from engineering dashboards.
Engineering focus narrowed to high-risk, runtime-relevant issues with clear ownership.
Streamlined prioritization and automated ownership accelerated critical patch timelines.
By integrating Phoenix Security into Backstage, a leading developer portal, the organization unified visibility into application security across all teams. Developers could now access vulnerability insights, remediation actions, and risk scores directly within their daily workflows. This seamless integration reduced context switching, improved developer efficiency, and accelerated secure development practices.
Seamlessly integrate container security into your existing workflows with native integrations, ensuring continuous protection across your DevOps pipeline. Automate vulnerability management, policy enforcement, and real-time threat detection within your containerized environments. Enhance security without disrupting development speed, leveraging deep integration with your cloud and orchestration tools.
A leading enterprise leveraged CISO View to gain real-time insights into their security landscape, enabling proactive risk management. By integrating container security and native security tools, the organization streamlined threat detection and compliance monitoring across cloud and on-prem environments. This enhanced visibility allowed the CISO to make data-driven decisions, reducing vulnerabilities and improving overall security resilience.
Comprehensive coverage and real-time threat detection. It helps manage compliance requirements and can integrate with other tools especially feeding SIEM. Certain tasks such as vulnerability scanning and patch management can be automated through scheduling. Depending on use case its checks on ACT risks and API deploy are valuable to check for errors or patterns.

The Phoenix team is quick to respond and always willing to help. They have implemented custom features and listened to our feedback. The product is progressing so quickly for a startup and I love having input into what we need next. What makes them unique is that they have done our job so understand the pain AppSecOPS teams go through.
