Case Study: n8n cuts security noise by 92% with Aikido

92% less noise 100% more clarity n8n’s security story with Aikido

n8n, a workflow automation platform serving enterprises and government agencies, faced significant challenges in managing its security posture as it scaled. Their existing tools, like Snyk and GitHub Advanced Security, created excessive noise and lacked a centralized process for tracking and resolving vulnerabilities. This made it difficult to enforce SLAs for security issues and prepare efficiently for compliance audits like SOC 2.

By implementing Aikido, n8n centralized its vulnerability management. The platform integrated seamlessly with their GitHub and Linear workflows, automatically creating tickets with SLAs. This provided a single source of truth and drastically reduced manual effort. Aikido delivered a 92% reduction in security noise, allowing engineers to focus on critical issues. This new structured process enabled n8n to reliably meet security resolution deadlines and pass audits more efficiently.
