PR-Phoenix Security AI Agents Deliver Direct Remediation in GitHub — From Single-Line Fixes to Full Build File Optimization

Phoenix Security Remediator Agent Press Release

Redefining the journey from ASPM to ASM with remediation embedded in Application Security Vulnerability Management: AI Agents That Don’t Just Identify Vulnerabilities — They Fix Them.

Washington, DC – Nov 2025Phoenix Security, he leader in ASPM application security vulnerability management, announced today at OWASP Global Application Security DC the early availability of its latest AI innovation – the Phoenix Autofix Remediator Agent.

Built to work hand-in-hand with developers, the Remediator brings AI-powered, context-aware plans or fixes directly into GitHub, giving teams the choice to patch a single dependency, an entire chain of libraries, or rewrite a full build file – all with automated impact analysis and breaking-change assessment.

With this release, Phoenix Security’s AI agents move beyond research and contextual analysis – they now fix vulnerabilities directly in code, aligning remediation speed with DevSecOps and code-to-cloud security workflows.

“The goal was never to automate people out of the loop, but to give them a trusted co-pilot that understands risk, business impact, and context,” said Francesco Cipollone, CEO & Co-Founder of Phoenix Security. “Our Remediator Agent doesn’t just tell you what’s broken — it tells who should fix what and where, why it’s important, if it’s going to break the flow, and delivers the fixes directly in the hands of engineering teams. The objective is to give teams flexibility to work in the way they want — with autofix or suggested remediation.”


AI Remediation in Action: Fix Directly in GitHub

The Phoenix Remediator Agent integrates natively with GitHub, enabling automated PR creation and contextual autofix generation. Developers can now review, approve, or merge AI-proposed fixes with full transparency. The agent supports:

  • Single dependency fixes — resolve isolated vulnerabilities with minimal code change.
  • Chained dependency updates — tackle multi-layered vulnerabilities across dependent libraries.
  • Full build file regeneration — generate a clean, validated replacement build file when vulnerabilities are systemic.
  • Breaking change prediction — evaluate dependency upgrades and propose minimal paths to stability.
  • Remediation plans — for complex issues, generate structured, context-aware plans rather than auto-commits.

Three Agents, One Mission: Precision From Research to Fix

Phoenix’s AI-powered agent architecture brings together three synergistic components:

The Researcher (GA)
Continuously monitors threat intelligence feeds, mapping vulnerabilities to MITRE ATT&CK, CWE, and ransomware campaigns — powered by proprietary models developed with Google Cloud.

The Analyzer
Uses Phoenix’s code-to-cloud reachability and STRIDE threat modeling to reveal exactly how a vulnerability impacts a business service or application.

The Remediator (New)
Moves context into actions with a remediation plan in reports, code pushed directly to GitHub, translating all intelligence into real, executable change. Using reachability, contextual deduplication, and lineage data, it generates environment-specific autofixes, remediation campaigns, and Jira or ServiceNow remediation plans — or commits changes directly to GitHub.

Together, they transform vulnerability management from “find and report” to “analyze and fix,” cutting remediation time from weeks to minutes.

AI Fixes That Understand Context

This capability is built on Phoenix’s proven Contextual ASPM Engine, combining:

  • Reachability Analysis – Removes non-exploitable vulnerabilities, reducing noise by 91%.
  • Contextual Deduplication – Prevents duplicate findings across code, containers, and runtime.
  • Container Version Control – Tracks lineage for precise remediation paths.
  • 4D Risk Formula – Balances exploitability, exposure, and business impact for risk-based prioritization.

AI fixes aren’t just applied — they’re validated against real-world deployment context, advancing the state of ASPM application security vulnerability management.

Proven Results Across Industries

  • ClearBank cut container noise by 98%, eliminated up to 99% of criticals, and saved $2.6M in analyst time annually – equivalent to four hours per security engineer every week.
  • Bazaarvoice eradicated all critical vulnerabilities in two weeks and reduced high-risk findings by 40%, creating immediate alignment between security and engineering.
  • An Ad-tech enterprise achieved a 78% reduction in container vulnerabilities while unifying code-to-cloud security visibility.

Human-Aligned AI: Fix Faster, Stay in Control

Unlike generic LLM copilots, Phoenix Security’s AI Agents are purpose-built for application security. Every action is traceable, reviewable, and aligned to the business context. Teams decide when to apply fixes automatically, when to review, or when to generate compensating controls.
Security remains in command — AI eliminates the manual grind.


Availability

  • Researcher Agent — Generally Available
  • Remediator Agent with AI Autofix in GitHub — Rolling out globally through Q4 2025–Q1 2026
  • Analyzer Agent — Q2 2026

Phoenix 3.30 strengthens ASPM application security vulnerability management with SLA-aware exceptions, code/cloud visibility, and visual threat intelligence — giving DevSecOps teams total control across code and cloud.
Rowan Scott
A newly disclosed vulnerability in Microsoft ASP.NET Core’s Kestrel web server (CVE-2025-55315) allows HTTP Request Smuggling attacks that can bypass authentication, inject hidden requests, and compromise session integrity. Rated CVSS 9.9, this issue impacts all supported versions of .NET and Visual Studio 2022. External-facing or proxy-misconfigured applications are at highest risk. Immediate patching is strongly advised.
Francesco Cipollone
Phoenix Security has completed its SOC 2 Type 2 report, reinforcing our ISO 27001 and data privacy commitments. Our Actionable ASPM helps teams cut noise and ship fixes that matter, powered by reachability analysis, contextual deduplication, and human-aligned AI agents. Customers like ClearBank, Bazaarvoice, and Integral Ad Science report double-digit reductions in criticals and massive time savings. If you need verifiable trust and faster remediation across code-to-cloud, Phoenix Security turns risk data into a single, prioritized backlog that engineering actually executes.
Francesco Cipollone
Most enterprises drown in vulnerability data yet starve for attribution. By mapping ownership, location, exposure, and business impact, Phoenix Security’s ASPM turns that swamp into a laser‑focused task list. Only then do three autonomous agents—Researcher, Analyzer, and Remediator—kick in, collaborating to recommend fixes and workflow automation that 10× security‑engineering output. Skip the context and you’ll waste money, requests, tokens, carbon, and human patience on hallucinated advice. For startups, the focus is clear—establish visibility and ensure core security practices are in place. Application Security Posture Management (ASPM) tools provide a straightforward, automated approach to detecting vulnerabilities and enforcing policies. These solutions help reduce risk quickly without overburdening small security teams. Mature organizations, on the other hand, are tackling a different set of problems. With the sheer number of vulnerabilities and an increasingly complicated threat landscape, enterprises need to fine-tune their approach. The goal shifts toward intelligent remediation, leveraging real-time threat intelligence and advanced risk prioritization. ASPM tools at this stage do more than just detect vulnerabilities—they provide context, enable proactive decision-making, and streamline the entire remediation process. The emergence of AI-assisted code generation has further complicated security in both environments. These tools, while speeding up development, are often responsible for introducing new vulnerabilities into applications at a faster pace than traditional methods. The challenge is clear: AI-generated code can hide flaws that are difficult to catch in the rush of innovation. Both startups and enterprises need to adjust their security posture to account for these new risks. ASPM platforms, like Phoenix Security, provide automated scanning of code before it hits production, ensuring that flaws don’t make it past the first line of defense. Meanwhile, organizations are also grappling with the backlog crisis in the National Vulnerability Database (NVD). A staggering number of CVEs remain unprocessed, leaving many businesses with limited data on which to base their patching decisions. While these delays leave companies vulnerable, Phoenix Security steps in by cross-referencing CVE data with known exploits and live threat intelligence, helping organizations stay ahead despite the lag in official vulnerability reporting. Whether just starting their security program or managing a complex infrastructure, organizations need a toolset that adapts with them. Phoenix Security enables businesses of any size to prioritize vulnerabilities based on actual risk, not just theoretical impact, helping security teams navigate the evolving threat landscape with speed and accuracy.
