This is very rewarding to see for those of us who have worked on the project and people with an interest in securing the OpenStack codebase. The list of (known) adopters so far:

If you would like to begin using it then check out our wiki for instructions here [1].  If you have no idea what this Bandit thing is then perhaps this presentation from the Vancouver summit might be interesting to you [2]. A Bandit gate job can be configured either as an experimental or none-voting job, so if your interested in trying it out you can give it a go and decide if its a good fit for your project before fully committing.

Hi,

At Cinder we are adding [1] basic bandit configuration for high and
medium severity results as a tox option, but not running it by default
for now.

Cheers,
Gorka
