Incident.io

Configure Incident.io to work with Aikido and create tickets based on new vulnerabilities found. Linking your Incident.io team to Aikido ensures new vulnerabilities get notified when they are found. Meaning all the benefits of Incident.io can be used on the alerting system from Aikido.
