Big Number Go Down: How AppSec Teams Actually Reduce Vulnerability Backlogs

February 5th, 2026
3pm CT

Vulnerability backlogs don’t grow because teams miss issues—they grow because teams can’t trust, prioritize, or efficiently triage what scanners surface.

In this live session, we’ll break down how modern AppSec teams are achieving real backlog reduction by cutting noise at the source, prioritizing what’s actually reachable and exploitable, and eliminating repetitive triage work altogether. You’ll see how shifting from “scan more” to “signal first” helps teams reduce risk while keeping developer velocity high.

In this 45-minute session you'll learn:

  • Why scanning more often makes vulnerability backlogs worse—not better

  • How high-performing AppSec teams triage findings directly in code, not dashboards

  • How to prioritize based on reachability, exploitability, and real-world impact

  • How teams eliminate repeat false positives and reclaim engineering time

Register now to learn how reducing noise helps lower risk, increase developer velocity, and drive real backlog reduction—plus bring your questions for a live Q&A.
