Security Scan Signal Over Noise

How we design deterministic detectors and workflow gates so developers get fewer false positives and faster fixes.

Modern engineering teams do not need more alerts, they need better ones.

At SecBez, every pull request scan starts with deterministic detectors so we can keep findings auditable and stable across runs.

Why deterministic first?

Deterministic detection gives us three properties that matter in real delivery pipelines:

  1. Repeatability between CI runs.
  2. Transparent root causes for each finding.
  3. Predictable merge gate behavior.

That is why AI enrichment in SecBez is applied after detection. AI helps explain and prioritize findings, but never overrides the base policy decision.

The merge gate model

Each finding is normalized, scored, and evaluated against policy thresholds. Teams can choose strict, balanced, or warn-first gates based on repository risk profile.

type GateDecision = 'pass' | 'warn' | 'fail'

This keeps approvals understandable for developers and defensible for security stakeholders.

What this means for teams

  • Faster feedback loops on pull requests.
  • Fewer low-value interruptions in daily work.
  • Better confidence when enforcing release policies.

If you are building security automation in CI, bias toward systems that are explainable before they are clever.
