VK Introduces Security Gate: Internal AppSec Platform for Code, Dependency and Container Security
VK has detailed its internal Security Gate platform, which combines SAST, SCA, secret detection and container scanning to identify security issues across more than 40,000 repositories. The system applies custom prioritization rules, dynamic metadata analysis and an LLM-based triage module called VK Triage to reduce false positives and focus developer attention on exploitable findings. Security Gate integrates directly with corporate GitLab for automatic project onboarding, badge reporting and merge-request checks via the Fast Scanner service. It also monitors open-source dependencies for protestware, malware and reachable vulnerable methods, while supporting a wide range of languages including Python, Go, Java and Swift. Additional features include Jira linking, cross-branch triage, SBOM export and automated alerts through VK WorkSpace bots.
