Case Study: GitHub reduces GitHub alert noise and prioritizes runtime risk with Cyscale

GitHub cuts alert noise by 3 steps with Cyscale

GitHub faced the challenge of overwhelming alert noise from its code and dependency scanning, as repository findings were disconnected from their actual impact on live cloud services. This made it difficult to prioritize which security issues truly mattered and to route remediation effectively to engineering teams. They turned to Cyscale to integrate their GitHub security workflows with cloud runtime context.

Cyscale provided a solution that maps GitHub-originating findings directly to the specific workloads and services running in the cloud. This allowed GitHub to drastically cut alert noise by prioritizing only those issues that affected deployed and exposed environments. The result was a cleaner, more actionable remediation handoff, enabling engineering teams to fix what was running and reachable first, which significantly improved the efficiency of their security program.
