The outcome
The capacity math changed. Instead of hand-triaging the critical list once a week, the team works the full backlog, every severity, continuously, with the same headcount.
What that unlocked:
- ✓The full backlog in reach, with every severity worked continuously, not just the criticals
- ✓Findings that arrive already judged, reasoning and evidence attached, not as raw scanner output
- ✓Fixes that land as merge-ready pull requests in the developers' normal flow
- ✓An audit trail that is a byproduct of the work, because every verdict and fix records why
The team's hours moved off sorting noise and onto the judgment calls and real fixes only they can make.
Is this a real risk?If so, fix it.
