Software Secured App

Connecting clients with their test results.

App Overview

As part of their core service offering, Software Secured offers clients access to a comprehensive reporting dashboard for managing their security testing results. Clients can use the app as an alternative way to receive automated testing notification messages to a Slack channel of their choosing.

Slack messages will be automatically posted to your selected channel to notify you of important dates, remind you of action items, or let you know if new information is available in Portal.
