Mobb Technical Brief

Mobb Technical Overview — Focus on the Technology

Mobb is an AI-powered remediation platform that automatically fixes security vulnerabilities in source code. It connects directly to repositories, ingests static analysis results, and generates validated patches that can be safely merged into production.

Mobb works with any SAST solution, or it can perform the scan itself using Opengrep, the open-source engine that also powers Mobb Vibe Shield (MVS).

Architecture

Mobb’s architecture includes several tightly integrated components:

  1. Ingestion Layer — Mobb accepts input from supported SAST tools such as Checkmarx, Fortify, CodeQL, Snyk, SonarQube, and Semgrep, or scans the code using Opengrep. Findings are normalized into a unified schema for further processing.

  2. Auto-Triage Layer — Before generating any fix, Mobb automatically determines whether a reported issue is a real, actionable vulnerability. Irrelevant findings or false positives are filtered out, ensuring that only valid issues progress to remediation.

  3. Auto-Fix Engine — Once a finding passes triage, Mobb applies a combination of deterministic remediation rules and GenAI assistance to generate secure patches.

  4. Validation Framework — Generated fixes undergo automated validation using multiple heuristics to ensure the patch does not break the code and that it matches the project’s code style and conventions.

  5. Integration Layer — Mobb integrates with GitHub, GitLab, Azure DevOps, and Bitbucket, delivering fixes directly as pull requests or commits based on configuration and policy. These SCMs are supported whether deployed on-premise or used as SaaS.

Deployment Options

Mobb offers three deployment models: Multi-tenant SaaS for quick onboarding, Single-tenant for isolated customer environments, and On-premise for private deployment in a customer’s AWS environment.

The options give organizations flexibility in meeting compliance, security, and operational needs while ensuring the same performance and reliability across all modes.

Security & Data Handling

No customer data is ever used to train AI models. Source code and reports are stored temporarily and purged after two weeks. Credentials and tokens are handled securely using encrypted storage or the Broker tunnel. Mobb has been SOC 2 Type II compliant for three years, audited annually to ensure adherence to strict security and operational controls.

Developer Experience

Mobb offers five integration options for developers and security teams: IDE Integration (MVS) for real-time secure coding, DevOps Integrations through popular CI/CD platforms, CLI for local or pipeline-based remediation, API for custom automation, and Web UI for reviewing findings, fixes, and feedback.

Dashboard

Mobb provides a central dashboard for tracking remediation activity, fix coverage, and issue trends across teams. It enables organizations to monitor backlog reduction, assess fix quality, and measure the impact of automated remediation on overall security posture.

Why It Matters

Mobb ensures only real issues are addressed, generates validated code fixes, and merges them automatically, closing the gap between detection and remediation while maintaining developer trust and workflow efficiency.

Mobb Vibe Shield — Focus on AI Code Security

AI coding assistants like Cursor and Copilot accelerate software creation but introduce new risks when insecure code is generated. Mobb Vibe Shield (MVS) brings Mobb’s automated triage and remediation capabilities into AI-assisted development environments, securing code as it’s written.

How It Works

MVS integrates through the Model Context Protocol (MCP) and operates in four continuous steps:

  1. Detect — Identifies insecure code patterns in real time using Opengrep scanning.

  2. Triage — Verifies whether each detected issue is real and relevant before acting.

  3. Fix — Automatically remediates the issue with a predictable, verified fix applied directly in the IDE.

  4. Prevent — Guides the AI agent how to avoid generating similar insecure code in future prompts.

Why It Matters

As AI becomes part of every developer’s workflow, MVS ensures that security keeps up with speed. It provides instant feedback, real-time fixes, and proactive prevention of insecure code generation, enforcing secure-by-design coding across both human and AI-generated code.

Mobb Backlog Remediation — Focus on Clearing Security Backlogs

Many organizations have tens of thousands of unresolved vulnerabilities across their codebases. Mobb automates backlog reduction by triaging, generating, and validating fixes — transforming long-standing security debt into a clean, secure codebase.

Workflow

  1. Input — Provide Mobb with a SAST report and access to the code, or have Mobb scan the repository using Opengrep.

  2. Triage — Each finding is analyzed to determine if it represents a real, relevant vulnerability. Non-issues are excluded automatically.

  3. Fix Generation — The Auto-Fix Engine creates secure patches using deterministic rules and GenAI-assisted templates.

  4. Validation — Mobb uses multiple heuristics to ensure fixes do not break the code and conform to existing code format and style.

  5. Delivery — Validated fixes can be committed directly to the repository through pull requests, ready for review or automatic merge.

Technical Details

Scalable processing across different SCMs, whether used as SaaS or deployed on-premise. Comprehensive SAST support across the leading SAST providers and their formats. Feedback loop: fixes reviewed by developers are used to review and refine fix rules for greater precision. Compliance: Mobb is SOC 2 Type II certified, ensuring secure handling of customer data and platform reliability.

Results

Reduce security backlog by 80–90% within weeks. Maintain a continuous remediation flow as new issues are discovered. Ensure that clearing the backlog removes unsafe patterns, preventing insecure code from propagating into newly generated code. Mobb transforms backlog cleanup into a predictable, automated process that keeps security debt from ever returning.
