The Challenge Modern Security Teams Face
The Challenge Modern Security Teams Face
We tried the usual fix: dump it on the devs. The so-called Shift Left. But after over a decade, let's be honest...Shift Left is a failure of epic proportions.
Today all hell breaks loose: open-source CVEs are multiplying like crazy, fixes still take weeks or months, and attackers armed with AI exploit them the same day they're published. That leaves you in a state of constant exposure, playing whack-a-mole at human speed against threats at AI speed, and there's nothing Shift Left Security can do about it.
The pain, by the numbers:

As product velocity climbs, security teams hit a wall. Vulnerabilities stack up faster than humans can triage, let alone fix. Hiring can't keep pace with app sprawl, and every new service adds more tools, more alerts, and more risk. Without predictable throughput, SLAs slip and stakeholders lose confidence.
The Math That Doesn't Work:
Average time to remediate 1 CVE manually: 2-4 hours (triage, patch, test, deploy)
3 AppSec engineers × 40 hrs/week = 120 hrs/week capacity
At 3 hours/CVE average: ~40 CVEs closed per week
New CVEs incoming: ~80-100 per week (with 2,000 containers growing 40% YoY)
Result: Backlog grows 40-60 CVEs/week. Game over.

How Root solves this
How Root solves this
Root pairs automated, in place remediation with contracted fix rate capacity, giving you a predictable path to zero regardless of how fast the business grows. Infinite scale. Zero headcount growth required.
We say, it's time to Shift Out. Shift Out is a movement built on a simple idea: open source should arrive clean of all vulnerabilities, secured by default. It may sound crazy, but we've made it real.
Root's Shift Out Platform is powered by thousands of AI agents trained to detect, patch, and validate vulnerabilities for any piece of open source code on this planet.

Libraries handle the rest at contracted throughput
60,000 remaining CVEs from application dependencies. Contracted fix rate such as 10 fixes per week equals 520 per year. Critical and High vulnerabilities are auto prioritized. CISA KEV items are expedited within 72 hours.
Result: Clear path to zero with a forecastable timeline. The backlog shrinks monthly instead of growing.
Root Image Catalog (RIC) eliminates 60-70% of CVEs instantly
2,000 containers × 100 CVEs average = 200,000 CVEs. Root Image Catalog (RIC) wipes out base image CVEs across all containers simultaneously. 180-second average fix time. Zero human involvement.
Result: 200,000 → 60,000 CVEs in week 1. No new hires needed.

How do we choose the right fix rate?
We scope backlog size, new CVE accrual, and compliance deadlines to recommend the tier that keeps you on track.
Root Image Catalog (RIC) auto-remediates base images across unlimited containers. Libraries throughput scales with your budget, not your headcount. Add 800 more containers? Same 3-person security team handles it.

Can we flex capacity up or down?
What happens when we exceed our contracted fix rate?
Can we flex capacity up or down?
Yes. Every contract includes onboarding surge and ongoing flex allowances, with options to amend tiers as needs change.
Every contract includes onboarding surge (25% in month 1) and ongoing flex allowances (15% monthly). We collaborate on amending tiers if demand consistently grows, but standard fixes maintain contracted throughput.
