Integration enables organizations to manage vulnerabilities in a single location for faster remediation and a stronger security posture
Contrast Security, ADR and Runtime Security leader, announced an integration with ServiceNow Application Vulnerability Response (AVR). The integration gives joint customers better visibility into vulnerabilities and their context — including vulnerability type, details, and precise location in application code. Vulnerabilities and their context are presented exactly where these customers already work — in ServiceNow AVR — removing the need to toggle between platforms to get the data they need.

Why Contrast Security is Integrating with ServiceNow
Contrast Security and ServiceNow have joined forces to simplify and automate processes as well as provide organizations with a holistic view of their applications and APIs, from development to production.
As application complexity and AI-generated code accelerate vulnerability volume, teams need more than raw findings. They need intelligent prioritization grounded in runtime reality.
Application Security and Security Operations teams using ServiceNow AVR are looking to enhance their application-layer visibility to further strengthen vulnerability risk prioritization. By staying within the ServiceNow AI Platform and adding richer context, teams can make faster, more confident decisions.
Key benefits of the Contrast and ServiceNow integration include:
- Reduced Manual Effort: Automates the manual creation of tickets and updating of information across systems, freeing up security teams to focus on other critical activities.
- Faster Time to Remediation: Rapidly address vulnerabilities that matter, directly in ServiceNow AVR. Contrast Security’s unbeatable accuracy exposes runtime vulnerabilities without false positives and passes data directly to ServiceNow AVR, saving significant time on risk assessment, investigation, and remediation.
- Enhanced Security Posture: By streamlining vulnerability management, improving visibility, and accelerating remediation, organizations are empowered to strengthen their overall security posture and reduce risk exposure.
Contrast Security embeds itself within applications for always-on security. It pinpoints vulnerabilities with laser precision across all environments. Contrast Security then passes this data to a ticket in ServiceNow AVR, which notifies users to begin their review. As users make changes in ServiceNow, Contrast Security receives updates on that vulnerability to ensure both systems are always in sync.
The results:
- Streamlined vulnerability management within ServiceNow AVR.
- Strong data to prioritize risk directly within ServiceNow AVR, addressing the vulnerabilities that matter most.
“Customers need greater support with unaddressed vulnerabilities,” said Faya Peng, General Manager, Strategic Business Growth at Contrast Security. “The integration gives visibility and prioritization of risks that truly matter, directly in their workflow. With this integration, Contrast Security and ServiceNow are providing organizations with visibility into the application layer from development to production. Users can boost security posture by focusing on the risks that matter most, instead of wasting time on false positives and ticket creation.”
ServiceNow’s expansive Partner Ecosystem and Partner Program play a critical role in supporting the growing market opportunity for the ServiceNow AI Platform. The ServiceNow Partner Program recognizes and rewards partners for their varied expertise and experience to drive opportunities, open new markets, and help customers transform their business across the enterprise.
As a Registered Build Partner, the certified integration provides a bidirectional sync of vulnerability data, creating a single source of truth for managing and remediating application vulnerabilities.
