Overview

The Remediations page provides a comprehensive view of all ongoing efforts to fix security vulnerabilities across your organization. Remediations can be fully automated by the Backline agents or in Hybrid mode, which requires your collaboration with the agents. Take action, track progress, priorities, and the status of automated and hybrid remediation activities.

  • SLA requirements
Focus on high-priority remediations first to maximize the security impact of your team’s efforts.

Pull Request Integration

When remediations generate pull requests, you’ll see:
  • Direct links to PRs in your SCM platform
  • Ability to review changes before merging
Automated remediations create pull requests that your team can review and merge following your standard development workflow.
