Security Champion

In many organizations, a Security Champion is a designated person who advises on secure coding and best practices. CybeDefend replaces (or augments) that role with an integrated chatbot that automatically understands the context of each vulnerability, offering immediate guidance right in your dashboard.

​

What Is a Security Champion?

Traditionally, a Security Champion is a developer or security professional embedded in a team to ensure that:

• Code reviews catch serious issues.
• Project decisions factor in security from day one.
• Team members have a go-to resource for quick answers.

CybeDefend’s Security Champion aims to provide these benefits, but on-demand and context-aware:

1. Contextual Awareness
   When you click on a vulnerability, the chatbot automatically knows the details—no more copy-pasting logs or line references.

2. Guided Solutions
   You can ask, “How do I fix this SQL injection?” and get suggestions tailored to your tech stack.

3. Proactive Assistance
   Enable the chatbot on any page for best practice tips, DevSecOps references, or clarifications about scanning parameters.

​

How It Works

1. Activate Chat
   A floating chat icon or side panel appears in the dashboard. Click to open.
2. Navigate to Vulnerability
   If you’re viewing a specific vulnerability, the chatbot auto-loads that context.
3. Ask for Help
   The AI references logs, scanner outputs, or known CVE patterns to provide actionable solutions.
4. General Mode
   If the AI is opened on, say, the Global Project Management page, it can offer broader DevSecOps advice, explain scanning strategies, or reference official docs.

Benefits

• Accelerated Remediation: No waiting for a real-world champion to become available.
• Consistent Guidance: Recommendations follow industry best practices, ensuring no crucial details are missed.
• Cross-Team Collaboration: Everyone sees the same chatbot-generated suggestions, maintaining consistency across squads.
