Dependabot automatically updates your Github dependencies, and flags any vulnerable dependencies to keep your organization secure.
Nucleus integrates with Dependabot to deliver mature vulnerability management to your code. Using vulnerabilities in dependencies discovered by Dependabot scans, Nucleus can triage threats to your organization’s assets and aggregate dependency vulnerabilities with vulnerability data from other scanners across all assets in your organization to deliver a centralized security dashboard.
Common security use cases for Dependabot with Nucleus include:
1: Sync code repository vulnerability data and asset context from Dependabot and other sources
2: Nucleus aggregates asset and vulnerability context across systems providing unified visibility
3: Threat intelligence is applied to vulnerabilities and business context is applied to assets
4: High risk threats are prioritized for remediation
5: Workflows help streamline remediation so the right teams can quickly take action
6: Track, report and measure the success of your vulnerability management program
