Case Study: Chainguard achieves comprehensive security review across code and CI/CD with Depthfirst

Chainguard speeds security review across all PRs with Depthfirst

Chainguard, a company that builds secure software supply chain infrastructure, faced a challenge common in product security: its team lacked the capacity to manually review every line of code across its growing codebase and increasing volume of pull requests. This constraint prevented comprehensive security reviews, leaving potential vulnerabilities undiscovered. To address this, Chainguard turned to vendor Depthfirst for its AI-powered code scanning and Security Reviewer service.

Depthfirst implemented a solution that provides comprehensive security review across Chainguard's existing code and new changes. Its AI scanner identifies and prioritizes vulnerabilities with high accuracy, while its Security Reviewer surfaces findings directly in GitHub pull requests, integrating security into the CI/CD workflow. This allowed Chainguard's engineers to fix issues quickly and consistently. The results included faster remediation, automated routing of findings to the correct teams, and a continuous improvement in the precision of results, enabling a scalable security operating model that was previously impractical.
