The Challenge
Prioritization & Remediation
Workflow Efficiency Prior to Zafran, ABC Fitness relied on a legacy scanner for vulnerability detection and used raw CVSS scores to prioritize issues. This approach led to overwhelming ticket volumes and little clarity on what truly needed to be fixed first. Their remediation process lacked scalability, as triage and fix cycles were slow, creating SLA risk and mounting internal frustration. Their ticketing workflow was also highly manual—requiring exports from their scanner and manual creation of Jira tickets, which consumed valuable team time.Security leadership wanted a solution that could help them cut through the noise, focus on actionable vulnerabilities, and automate the patching pipeline.
The Solution
ABC Fitness bought Zafran initially to improve vulnerability prioritization. Zafran’s ability to integrate with multiple security and ticketing tools allowed ABC to immediately start prioritizing vulnerabilities based on exploitability, asset value, and exposure context—rather than raw CVSS scores.
This led to a dramatic reduction in the number of remediation tickets. Zafran helped consolidate 114,000 vulnerabilities into just 9,800 remediation actions, highlighting duplicate or overlapping issues and optimizing patching strategy.
With the rollout of Zafran’s Remediation Operations (RemOps), ABC Fitness began automating the creation of Jira tickets, eliminating hours of manual work each week and accelerating MTTR.
Implementation
The team implementing Zafran described the onboarding as seamless. Zafran’s support team provided documentation and responsive assistance, and the platform was up and running with full integration into existing Jira and Tenable workflows within a short timeframe. Notably, Zafran’s prioritization and RemOps capabilities aligned well with their lean IT/security staffing model, ensuring that limited resources were not a blocker to effective deployment or impact.

Results
86% of CVSS-critical vulnerabilities deprioritized through Zafran’s contextual risk filters
SLA attainment significantly improved, with Zafran becoming a central system of record to track and report vulnerability remediation progress to the executive team
Automated ticket creation enabled via RemOps
114,000 vulnerabilities consolidated into fewer than 10,000 actionable tickets
Zafran now enables the CISO to clearly communicate to the board how critical risk is being reduced, with over 90% of critical and high vulnerabilities actively being addressed or deprioritized based on real-world exploitability. Zafran serves as the central hub for vulnerability prioritization and ticketing at ABC Fitness, with RemOps expected to continue reducing manual effort and improving operational resilience.
