## What it is
DefectDojo is an open-source vulnerability management, DevSecOps, and ASPM platform built on Django. It aggregates findings from hundreds of security tools, deduplicates and triages vulnerabilities, tracks remediation, and generates reports.

## Use cases
- centralize vulnerability findings from multiple security scanners
- deduplicate and triage security findings across tools
- track remediation of application security vulnerabilities
- generate security reports for penetration tests
- build a DevSecOps pipeline with automated security tooling
- manage application security posture across a portfolio
- import and normalize scan reports from security tools

## When to choose
- you need a unified vulnerability management platform that aggregates results from many scanners
- your security team spends too much time manually triaging and reporting findings
- you want a self-hosted, open-source alternative to commercial ASPM tools
- you need deduplication and metrics across repeated scans and engagements

## When to avoid
- you only need a single vulnerability scanner rather than a management layer
- you want a lightweight CI-only security gate without a web platform
- you cannot operate a Django application with a database and container infrastructure

## Facets
- artifact type: application
- maturity: active
- function: security, monitoring, analytics, workflow-automation, api-framework, self-hosted
- domain: security, backend
- platform: python, self-hosted
- tags: vulnerability-management, devsecops, aspm, appsec, vulnerability-deduplication, security-orchestration, django, owasp, penetration-testing-reports, security-reporting, devops, automation, docker, kubernetes, web-server, linux
