Project Management for Security Teams

The gap between "logged" and "tracked"

Most security findings get logged the moment they're discovered and then stall the moment they're assigned. A spreadsheet row doesn't age visibly. A ticket in a general-purpose queue competes with everything else and usually loses, quietly, until an audit or a re-scan finds it again months later exactly where it was left.

What a finding actually needs once it's found is the same thing any other overdue work needs: a visible column, a clock, and enough friction that it can't be silently ignored. That's a project-management problem as much as a security one, and it's the part ShipSprint is actually built to solve.

To be direct about scope: ShipSprint has no vulnerability scanner, does not detect findings, and holds no compliance certification, no SOC 2, no ISO 27001. What it does is take a finding once you have it and make sure remediation doesn't disappear.

That's a narrower promise than a security platform makes, and it's deliberately narrower. The gap most teams actually have isn't finding vulnerabilities (scanners already do that); it's the tracking step in between discovery and fix, where a real deadline either exists or it doesn't.

A finding that's been "known for a while" usually isn't sitting in obscurity because nobody cares. It's sitting there because it never got a mechanism forcing anyone to look at it again. That's the specific gap a board with a WIP limit and a forecast closes, not by making the finding scarier, but by making it impossible to quietly ignore.

Said plainly, so there's no ambiguity

• No vulnerability scanning and no scanner integrations: findings come in from wherever your team already finds them, and get tracked from there
• No SOC 2, no ISO 27001, no HIPAA or PCI-DSS certification. ShipSprint holds none of these, and doesn't imply otherwise anywhere on this page
• No screenshots, no keystroke logging, no activity tracking of the security team or anyone else
• Every workspace is an isolated tenant, and admin actions are logged: real, verifiable facts about the platform, stated as exactly that and nothing more
• No claim of penetration-test results, threat-model reviews, or any third-party security assessment beyond what's stated plainly above

A remediation cycle, walked through

A finding comes in from wherever your team sources it and becomes a card with an owner and a severity. It sits in a column with a WIP limit, so it can't just accumulate behind higher-visibility work indefinitely. As the team's sprint velocity is measured, the forecast shows whether remediation is on pace to close before the deadline that matters (an internal SLA, a customer commitment, a re-scan date), with enough lead time that "we're behind" is a conversation you have on your own terms, not one forced by the deadline itself.

Once it's closed, the wiki page documenting the decision (fixed, risk-accepted, deferred) stays put with its history, so the next person asking "why is this marked resolved" gets an actual answer.

Why the tool's own posture matters here, honestly stated

A security team evaluating any new system asks reasonable questions about it before adopting it: who can access what, whether actions are logged, whether the data can be gotten back out. Those questions apply to ShipSprint the same as any other vendor, and the honest answer is a list of specific facts rather than a badge: every workspace is an isolated tenant, two-factor authentication is available to every user, every admin action is logged, and the whole workspace exports as JSON at any time on any paid plan.

That's a real, checkable list, not a substitute for a certification, and not presented as one. If your procurement process requires SOC 2 or ISO 27001 as a hard gate, ShipSprint won't clear it today, and it's better to know that before a trial than after one.

Where it tends to fit instead is as the internal system of record sitting behind whatever certified tooling handles the parts that genuinely require certification: the place remediation actually gets tracked and closed, feeding an honest status upward, rather than the system of record itself for a compliance program.

Pricing

Findings tracking, the wiki and audit logging on admin actions are available from Team.

Business adds forecasts on remediation pace and the owner command center if leadership wants a standing view of open findings. Every paid plan starts with a 14-day full-access Business trial, no card required: enough to run a real backlog of findings through it before committing.
