### AI overview

This guide explains how to remediate vulnerabilities in application code, open-source dependencies, container images, infrastructure as code, cloud configurations, and secrets. It describes prioritizing findings by exploitability and exposure, fixing issues through patches or configuration changes, and retesting fixes. It also discusses backporting when a dependency upgrade is impractical and presents Aikido Security's remediation workflow.
