Burn down the CVE and CSPM backlog with fixes ready to merge.
Your scanners already find the problems. Agents take the backlog from Amazon Inspector, Security Hub, Wiz or Snyk, check which findings are reachable in your environment, and turn each one into a tested fix ready to merge: a dependency bump, a Terraform change, a patch window. Your team reviews pull requests instead of spreadsheets.
S3 bucket invoices-prod allows public read
Prepared in 2m 05s. Waiting for owner review
[The work behind every finding]
01The manual work
Prioritize
A finding is only a line in a report. Engineers still check if it is reachable, find the owner and work out a safe fix.
02The agent handoff
Fix ready
Frontier agents rank the backlog by real exposure, then prepare the change in the code or infrastructure that owns it.
03Your engineers’ role
Merge
Set which fixes agents may prepare and where. Review the pull request and decide what ships.

[Example scenario]
A healthtech company with 22 AWS accounts, Security Hub and Amazon Inspector turned on, and Terraform for everything. Two security engineers own the backlog.
Backlog review startsSignal
Security Hub shows 2,400 open findings. Nobody knows which ones are reachable or who owns them.
Agent ranks by reachabilityAgent
Checks each finding against network paths, IAM and runtime use. 310 are reachable. 2,090 are closed with the reason.
Top finding explainedAgent
S3 bucket invoices-prod allows public read. The cause is a Terraform module default, used in 6 stacks.
Fixes grouped by ownerAgent
310 findings become 38 pull requests, grouped by module and owner, each with a clean Terraform plan.
Owners mergeYour team
Team leads review plans showing only the intended change. 29 pull requests merged on day one.
Verified and recordedAgent
Security Hub rescans. 241 findings closed, each linked to its pull request as audit evidence.
CloudThinker09:42
Backlog triaged: 310 of 2,400 findings are reachable. Grouped into 38 PRs by module and owner. Highest: public read on invoices-prod via modules/s3-bucket (6 stacks).
Security engineer10:15
Ranking looks right. Sending the PRs to the owners.
Platform lead14:00
Merged the s3-bucket module fix. Plan was 1 change, no destroys.
CloudThinker17:30
Rescan done. 241 findings closed today, each linked to its PR. 69 left, all assigned with owners.
An illustrative example. Team, systems and times are representative, not a specific customer.
[Frontier remediation agents]
Agents work the backlog from every scanner on one policy, so a critical finding arrives ranked by real exposure, with the fix already written.
[What changes]
| Moment | Today | With frontier agents |
|---|---|---|
| Prioritization | By severity score alone | By reachability and real exposure |
| Finding the owner | A ticket that bounces between teams | Routed to the repo and team that own it |
| The fix | Written by hand, when there is time | A pull request with tests and a plan |
| Closing the loop | Marked done in a spreadsheet | Rescanned and verified after the merge |
| Recurring issues | Fixed one resource at a time | Fixed once in the shared module |
[Integrations]
[Adoption path]
The rollout follows the four phases of the AWS Cloud Adoption Framework, so it fits the plan your cloud team already runs.
01Envision
Pick one backlog
Connect one scanner read-only and let agents rank and draft fixes in shadow mode. Compare them with your own triage.
02Align
Agree the fix policy
Decide which fix types agents may open, which repos they may touch, and who reviews.
03Launch
Roll out team by team
Add each team’s repos and accounts on the same policies, pull request format and audit trail.
04Scale
Make it continuous
New findings get a drafted fix as they appear. The backlog stops growing instead of being cleared once a quarter.

Start with one scanner, read-only. See the fixes agents draft before you grant a single permission more.
