A typical enterprise AppSec stack: one SCA tool, one SAST tool, a secrets scanner, a container scanner, and a cloud posture product — each with its own console, credential model, project mapping, and idea of severity. Every added tool made detection better and operations worse.
Vendors answer sprawl with platform consolidation: replace the other four tools with ours. That trade is rarely available — teams picked each engine for a reason.
What actually sprawls
It is not the scanning that hurts. It is the five onboarding flows, five credential rotations, five project-mapping models, five policy engines, and five places to look during an incident. The cost of sprawl is operational, so the consolidation should be operational too.
Consolidate the control, keep the engines
- One place to connect and validate providers, with credentials in managed secret storage.
- One inventory: your Azure DevOps organizations, projects, repositories, and pipelines — shared by every provider integration.
- One posture model, normalized across providers.
- One policy layer deciding what findings do to builds.
- One audit history for every operational change, regardless of provider.
Where Kangl draws the line
Kangl deliberately does not scan. It is the provider-neutral control plane above the scanners: Snyk is production-supported today, and the provider ecosystem is designed to expand. Your detection stack stays best-of-breed; the operating model stops multiplying.
