Replacing Point Tools while Integrating Enterprise Operations
Legacy vulnerability management platforms require maintaining hundreds of bespoke parser plugins for disparate point scanners. BlackShield eliminates point security tools entirely by publishing official, production-hardened containers and appliances:pipeline-scanner, cloud-scanner, k8s-scanner, vms-scanner,security-agent, network-sensor, and deception-engine.
Where integrations are vital is engineering operations—not security telemetry collection. BlackShield connects directly to your engineering channels so your team receives actionable findings in the tools they use every day.
Slack ChatOps
Post real-time, interactive alerts to dedicated channels (e.g., #sec-critical). Includes finding severity, affected asset, CVSS metrics, and direct links to one-click remediation runbooks.
- Configurable severity thresholds (Critical, High, Medium, Low)
- Preflight URL verification and instant smoke-test dispatch
- Scoped per-tenant without requiring broad workspace permissions
Microsoft Teams
Deliver structured Adaptive Cards directly to Microsoft 365 channels. Cards feature severity color-coding, remediation action buttons, and direct triage deep-links for SecOps response.
- Native Office 365 connector and Power Automate webhook support
- Preflight endpoint validation before activation
- Customizable channel routing per business unit
GitHub Issues Automation
Bridge security findings directly into developer workflows. Automatically opens tracked issues with CVE details, affected packages, and upgrade commands, and closes them when remediated.
- Auto-close issues when scans verify vulnerability fix
- Customizable issue labels (e.g.,
security,cve) - Backfill capability to sync historical open vulnerabilities
Generic Outbound Webhook
Dispatch HMAC-SHA256 signed JSON payloads to custom endpoints, internal SIEM/SOAR platforms, or event-driven Lambda functions.
- Tamper-evident signatures via
X-BlackShield-Signature - Subscribe to specific events (findings, incidents, remediations)
- Deterministic retry schedule with exponential backoff
Safety and Verification Invariants
Every operational integration requires passing automated preflight checks before it can be enabled. Preflight checks verify endpoint syntax, HTTPS protocol enforcement, and network reachability. Smoke tests can be triggered on demand to confirm end-to-end receipt without generating false security alerts.
