Security Automation
The Security Automation team strives to protect GitLab and our customers as well as save us money through the automation of processes within Security Department teams, our primary customers. Our work is developed by dogfooding the product, similar to any traditional engineering development team at GitLab, and hosted on internal infrastructure co-managed by the Infrastructure Security team. Working closely with the Anti-Abuse team and other product teams, we often bring our research-driven and internal automations to the product for all to benefit through escalating levels of dogfooding.
