Announcing Jit’s Integration with StackHawk: Runtime Visibility Meets Unified Vulnerability Management

We’re excited to announce a new integration with StackHawk—a developer-first DAST platform that brings runtime vulnerability testing directly into CI/CD workflows. With this integration, StackHawk findings are now ingested directly into Jit’s unified product security backlog—right alongside SAST, SCA, CSPM, secrets detection, and more.

The Problem: Fragmented DAST Results = Missed Security Findings

StackHawk makes it easy for teams to shift DAST left—scanning running applications early in the SDLC with fewer false positives and stronger developer workflows. But for many security teams, StackHawk findings remain siloed from the rest of their security tooling. This fragmentation makes it hard to track vulnerabilities across the stack, prioritize risks consistently, and ensure findings make it to the right teams.

Without a single place to manage findings, organizations are left stitching together insights from multiple dashboards—leading to context switching, redundant triage, and the risk of missing critical issues.

The Solution: One Security Backlog, Runtime Coverage Included

With the new StackHawk integration, Jit continuously pulls StackHawk findings into your product security backlog—so you can track every issue from runtime testing in the same place as your SAST, SCA, and cloud security signals. Each StackHawk finding is automatically normalized, prioritized, and routed according to your existing Jit workflows.

This means AppSec and developers finally have one place to understand and act on security risks—regardless of where or how they were discovered.

Key Benefits of the Jit + StackHawk Integration

Unify DAST with the Rest of Your Stack

StackHawk findings are now part of Jit’s centralized backlog—right alongside vulnerabilities from static analysis, software composition analysis, IaC scanning, and more. This provides a complete view of application security across the SDLC.

Runtime Visibility, Fewer False Positives

Because StackHawk only surfaces issues that are actively exploitable at runtime, the findings are lower noise and higher confidence. Combined with Jit’s context-aware prioritization, teams can focus on what actually matters.

Built for CI/CD Pipelines

StackHawk is engineered for modern engineering teams—designed to run in CI/CD and test every push to production. Now, with findings piped into Jit, you can pair StackHawk’s fast feedback with Jit’s automation and prioritization logic.

DAST That Covers Modern Architectures

Whether you're testing REST, GraphQL, gRPC, or SOAP APIs, StackHawk brings comprehensive runtime coverage for modern application stacks. Jit keeps all those findings in one place—normalized, prioritized, and automatically routed to the right teams.

Automation That Speeds Up Remediation

With StackHawk data in Jit, you can trigger automated workflows:

  • Open tickets in Jira, Linear, or Monday.com if newly detected issues cross predefined risk thresholds

  • Send alerts to Slack or log them in Splunk/Chronicle

How to Set Up the Jit + StackHawk Integration

Connecting StackHawk to Jit takes just a few clicks:

  1. Navigate to the Integrations page in Jit

  2. Click Connect on the StackHawk card

  3. Paste your StackHawk API key in the modal

  4. Jit will validate the key and set up the integration

  5. Once connected, Jit will pull findings from StackHawk daily

That’s it—runtime findings from StackHawk will start flowing into your Jit backlog automatically.

Shift DAST Left Without Fragmenting Security Management

StackHawk helps you push DAST earlier in the development lifecycle. Jit ensures those findings are actionable, prioritized, and part of the bigger picture. Together, we’re enabling developer-first runtime testing—without the complexity of managing multiple security backlogs.

Ready to unify your StackHawk findings with the rest of your security stack? Set up the integration today and simplify how you manage product security.
